The room was fine. Every morning at 4am staff would walk the corridor, talking loudly and letting every fire door bang, which there are a lot of on the corridors. No staff on Reception fir check out for me to share my complaint with, attempted visiting Reception 3 times before I left and still unable to speak to a member of staff.

We booked the superior room which was lovely and very good value for money. The only thing that let it down was that the bath was filthy. We didn’t have breakfast or use any of the facilities but we did order room service. The food was very nice and arrived hot and well presented. The lady on reception on arrival and checkout wasn’t the friendliest which was quite disappointing. Overall a pleasurable stay but could have been perfect if not for the dirty bath and unfriendly receptionist.

We booked a room which inc breakfast each morning. Every morning we were told by staff breakfast is extra £17.40pp Had to go through same argument daily of paying £35 then getting this refunded at reception as they would not correct the records. Witnessed 10 other people suffer the same fate. Awful way to start the day , not relaxing at all. The breakfast itself was not even worth it. Very poorly ran, constantly running out of everything from plates to eggs, juice etc. Constantly waiting for things to be filled as staff are not proactively monitoring everything and wait for customers to tell them before acting. Staff have a completely slopey shoulders approach to complaints, always just blaming another dept for errors. They managed to lock access to our rooms 1 hr before check out (for us and multiple other guests) Feel like I spent more time at reception than enjoying our time away. Urgently need new management team - completely ineffectively ran. The small terrace we had has clearly not been cleaned in months. Bird poo all over the railings, filled with old leaves and masses of cobwebs all over the door frame. Service completely ruined our stay

Receptionist was very welcoming and helpful. Rooms were clear and the food was good. My only critisicm would be the Gym and Spa facilities. The poolside was dirty as people had used their outdoor footwear to walk into the pool. The gym equipment was very dated but functional.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Our stay was a continuous, frustrating saga involving three different rooms, none of which met basic standards for comfort or cleanliness. The initial room was incredibly dated. The mattress was so old that it completely collapsed the moment I sat on it, making it impossible to sleep comfortably. The bedding was also stained with dirty marks so clearly the cleaning was not up to normal standards. Adding to the discomfort, the radiator made an awful, disruptive banging noise as soon as I entered the room and didnt stop regardless of it was on or off. We immediately complained and requested a move. We were moved to a second room which, while slightly less dated, was noticeably grubby. The most disappointing aspect was the "King Bed," which was clearly just two single beds pushed together with a seam running down the middle. This is unacceptable for a hotel room advertised as having a king-size offering. We asked to swap rooms again, but the receptionist insisted the hotel was fully booked and there was no other rooms. It wasn't until we pushed for a refund that the situation magically changed. The receptionist contacted the manager, and suddenly, an "upgraded" room became available. This room was visually much more modern, but its appearance was entirely superficial, it was filthy. The final, and most disruptive, issue was the constant noise pollution. Every single time a toilet on our floor was flushed, we were woken up by a loud, horrendous banging and gushing noise.
