8/10 Very Good! (1,001 reviews)
"Overall another fantastic stay. The staff are all great and the facilities are brilliant for the money. Only negatives would be that the bar prices are very high, and when the hotel is very busy the breakfast quality suffers, but apart from that, it's all good and we will be back"
