I think the hotel must really come alive in the Summer. I stayed one night, passing through on a cold day after staying with friends in warm Southern Spain. Not the best circumstances to judge! My room was adequate and the bed comfortable. Nothing luxurious but then I only paid £50, plus breakfast, which, again, was adequate. I saw no one else in the entire hotel, except for the pleasant receptionist so there was no atmosphere. I saw an indoor and an outdoor pool and they apparently do dinner in the Summer. There was also a small bar area, which doubtless comes alive when the hotel is full.
It felt more like an out-of-season resort complex, with nice grounds with palm trees. I'd like to try it at a better time of year.
