What a charming place! The retro decor made me feel like I was transported back in time. The pool area was spacious and the hot tub was just what I needed after a long day on the road. I had a wonderful stay.

United Kingdom, February 2023

Traveling through the area, we stumbled upon a cool hotel on a hill between banks. Its location right off the highway was very convenient. The room was spacious and clean. We appreciated the extra decaf tea and the friendly staff who were always accommodating. The game rooms and pool were a nice touch. Breakfast was okay, but the coffee was really good.

The ice machine closest to our room was out of order during our stay.

United Kingdom, February 2023

As young holiday goers, we loved the lively music in the entryway and lobby, adding a fun vibe to our stay. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making us feel like we were visiting old friends. The adult-only swim time from 9-10 pm was a nice bonus.

Felt like treated like royalty, no complaints.

Free Breakfast & Friendly staff

The best aspects of the stay were the complimentary breakfast and friendly staff at the hotel. the breakfast was delicious and had a variety of options to choose from. the staff was very welcoming and always had a smile on their face. the hotel is located near several attractions and restaurants, making it very convenient for travelers.

The worst aspects of the stay were the uncomfortable beds and noisy rooms. the beds were very hard and made it difficult to get a good night's sleep.

This hotel is great value for money, with clean and modern rooms that have nice Whirlpool Tubs, and hot breakfast included. The staff is friendly, and you can find it easily off the highway, very close to the area you need to be, which is convenient.

No negative aspect to mention, everything was fine.
