The whole experience of cleanliness, no sound denting with children screaming next door and lack of decent toiletries was highly disappointing. Staff lovely, the premises needs a totally new revamp.

View was incredible. Pool has tremendous potential…so unique. But it was cold, looked dirty and looked like it could benefit from additional maintenance.
