First impressions were great - the lobby, hallways, all very clean and modern. Bunk beds in the family rooms are a great novelty and the room was nice and clean. Vending machines throughout. Great bar, good restaurant. Friendly staff. Kids clubs was thoroughly enjoyed by children and parents! Great pool. Fairly convenient to the city centre with a Spar across the road.
