"After travelling for 5 hours, getting to the room, tired, thirsty and hungry, there was cans of san pellegrino, bottles of water crisps, a tea cake and tea and coffee there."
"My wife and I stayed in one of the suites and it was beautifully presented and very comfortable."
"We stayed in a two bedroom apartment which was a little further up the road than the main hotel."
