amazing facilities, awesome hosts
nice hosts unbelievable facilities comfy beds
the hosts were very nice and the facilities were unbelievable. i planned to go to pubs, but just stayed at the accommodation after i finished going to the football. everything i needed was there, so it was very easy. the room also has comfy beds.
the additional charges to use the spa facilities are not clear when you book. it says all available to hire, but the costs should be more transparent. i would have made different choices if i knew.

broken banister unresolved issue
the location was acceptable, close to bars, restaurants, and the sea.
i found that issues raised in previous reviews regarding the hotel had not been resolved (even after assurances). the banister spindle remained broken, and the mould in the bathroom continued to flourish.
