10/10 Excellent
"I booked this place because I was traveling with my dog Unfortunately I didn’t book the correct room. The staff rang me to confirm and I was able to get the room. The staff also contacted me to make sure I would check in on time on my day of arrival. This is great service. The room and location are fine The bed is comfortable and the room is located on the ground floor for easy access to pool and garden area I has nothing but a great experience here and a warm good bye as I left I think some of the negative reviews your dad is more about the people than the staff Enjoy your visit"
