breakfast buffethelpful staffconstant noiseeaster sunday
The breakfast buffet offered many options. The staff were helpful and very nice. The rooms were clean, and the beds were the BEST. The pool was clean and relaxing!!!
The noise level from the club across the road was a downside. The noise was constant until 4 am. I realize it was a bank holiday, but I didn't sleep well. I wish they had warned about the noise at the hotel.
