The property is updated and looks amazing but more impactful was the staff. Everyone I encountered was aimed to please. The culture of the staff was definitely to go above and beyond in serving its guests. When you encounter these people, you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic family stopover
The hotel was beautiful, it felt very safe with their security measures and they went above and beyond for our little girls birthday by placing rose petals in the room. All the staff were very friendly and helpful

Second stay here with the family. Everything was excellent as always. Very spacious clean apartment room, liked the plentiful usb charging points and free drinking water. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Restaurant food is very good but on the expensive side. Will definitely be staying again.
