Overall, a very good Hotel to stay at. Staff were very helpful. Only issue was that our room had an old musty smell to it. Also, the pool area looked out of action due to all the building debris piled up in a corner.

This was a pleasant hotel. It wasn’t fancy, but it met my needs. The staff were pleasant. The price was reasonable. The bed was a little over firm. The daily breakfast buffet was decent. There was fresh fruit, and an omelette station.

Short term stay ok, but need to improve breakfast
It's a good hotel, nice employees and large parking. The rooms are large but look like old, and the breakfast is very poor, just a couple of things to eat, for a four stars hotel the need to improve it.

Great value hotel.
Great hotel, great price, great location. Only issue was towels not being left following room cleaning. This was resolved by phoning reception to request same. Overall would recommend this hotel.
