Breakfast was good but food served at restaurant during dinner was not up to the standard, definitely not the value for money we spent, we ordered pizza and pasta and found it too expensive for the quality we were served, ready made dense pizza base, and the cheese quality wasn’t great.

Hidden gem

We asked for a top floor quiet room but when we arrived to check in we were given a ground floor room near party that was on so was definitely not what I asked for but reception changed room
