great breakfastoutdated roomlimited seating
The breakfast was great. The beer selection was also acceptable.
The room was quite outdated I did expect more. The pool lacked a seating area, I had to supervise my child with no place to sit. The wedding guests shared the bar, this made it crowded. I found this unacceptable.

The reception staff, Molly and Sarah, were cute! The refurbished room featured beautiful modern decor. I found the gym facilities very good. The breakfast buffet offered many choices.
I found one minor issue, the modern iron was a little unusual.
