Would not stay here again...

Liked: Not much to be honest, the best part was the view from the main building our room had the smallest window possible
Disliked: On arrival the staff behind the reception were so rude and seem liked they could not care about anyone other than what they were doing, the Breakfast was terrible and looked like it had been under a sunlamp for 3 hours prior! should you want a hard boiled fried egg then this is the place to go!!! Also noted that this place appeared to house Asylum Seekers!!....

Beautiful

Liked: I loved the location and the hotel is beautiful.
Disliked: The TV was located in a very odd place in the room so it was difficult to watch as we didn't do much due to my daughter being unwell.
