Fantastic Service and Clean Rooms

friendly staffclean roomgood standardfreshly cooked breakfast
All the staff I met were friendly and happy to help from check-in to departure. The room was clean, and the dining areas were also of a good standard. There were plenty of choices on the menu for dinner. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order, and the meals in the evening offered good value (the portions are generous!).
The shower was not the best.
