Arriving on the coach I nearly had a heart attack when I spotted the hotel sign on a derelict building. Luckily it was just pointing in the direction of the actual hotel. From outside it didn’t look too promising with shutters over every window. At reception we were checked in quickly and directed to our room. The room was a surprise as it was far better than I had expected. It was an adequate size with a wardrobe, double bed, two chairs, dressing table and some drawers and two bedside cabinets. The bathroom had been renovated to an excellent standard and there was no shortage of hot water for the powerful shower. There was a balcony overlooking the entrance which had another two chairs and table. There was also an outside light which you could turn on if you fancied sitting out there in the evening. Those shutters that looked so horrible from outside were actually superb as they allowed you to open the patio doors to have plenty of fresh air without any bugs being able to get in. To open the shutters you just slide them back like a patio door so very simple to use. There is one lift in the hotel which didn’t break down during our stay so that’s always a bonus! The swimming pool was a decent size with plenty of loungers. There was no need to dash down at dawn to grab one. The grounds were in need of a general tidy up while we were there but it was approaching the end of the season. There was no music around the pool and no pool bar. Guests had to go into the main bar to get a drink which was a nuisance as you had to be dry and dressed to go in there. The food was my main grumble. I am not a big breakfast eater and prefer toast. After putting the bread into the toaster three times I ended up with hard bread but definitely not toast! Other customers tried 6 times with the same result. When we complained to hotel staff we were told that they couldn’t turn the toaster up or it would burn the toast. I think this what they refer to as a broken toaster but it wasn’t replaced or fixed all week. Lunchtime and evening meals always had chips with them and the selection was very limited. Needless to say we ate out quite a lot. The location isn’t bad as everywhere is accessible by bus and it’s a short walk up the lane to the main road and the bus stop. At night though the lane was very dark and is full of pot holes so you had to careful. There was no evening entertainment but there are a number of bars and restaurants within walking distance. There is a patio area adjacent to the bar where a lot of guests sat in the evening. As it was so quiet though we mostly went out. Staff were all friendly and helpful. The rooms were cleaned every day and there was no shortage of lovely fluffy white towels every day. If you are looking for somewhere very quiet and can accept the food is not great then this may be for you but we shan’t be returning. Having paid for all inclusive we found that we rarely ate or drank there during our stay so would happily pay more for a better hotel.
