8/10 Good
"We were there for two nights only we did not use facilities as we were out all day for wedding ceremonies. Staff were friendly and professional. Family room looked nice. Only downside was lots of small moths in the room at night and few spiders. Also bathroom sink tap was dirty had to wipe clean."
