From the extremely lovely welcome to complimentary soft drink, this place is great. It is a quality place, spacious, clean and with cooking facilities. It actually had a comfortable arm chair and table and chairs to sit at. A very large TV, comfortable bed. We loved everything about it. A bit warmer and we could have had a swim in the lovely pool area.

Our room was perfectly clean. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. My only disappointment was when looking on the website to book I did choose this property thinking the water park pictured was a part of the hotel but unfortunately it's not which I found a little deceiving. We did cool off in the lovely pool though.
