positive:
Clean as a whistle
Most guests who've stayed here have reported that the hotel is spotlessly clean. Housekeeping staff work tirelessly to ensure that both bedrooms and communal areas are well presented.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Thin walls
A few guests have noted that the walls between bedrooms and on to corridors are quite thin, meaning other guests can be heard returning to their room late at night. Light sleepers may wish to take this into account and take some earplugs with them.
negative:
Refurbishment required
Some guests feel that in order to bring the hotel in line with others in the price range, renovations wouldn't go amiss. The accommodation has not been decorated in some time, meaning decor is quite outdated in some guests' opinions. That said, this generally would not stop them from returning again.
negative:
Busy pool area
A handful of guests have noted that during peak season, it can be difficult to obtain a sunlounger unless you are prepared to get up quite early to get to the pool when it opens.
