Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers cozy rooms with three single beds, providing ample facilities and comfortable bedding. The service could benefit from improvements in customer interactions. Situated right next to a theme park, the location is convenient despite some dining shortcomings. The hotel offers basic facilities, making it a decent choice considering the value for money.
The hotel has comfortable rooms with three single beds that were cozy, an excellent shower, and ample facilities. The service was accommodating, although there could be room for improvement in customer service training. Being in a theme park location, it is convenient, but it was a letdown that the on-site pub was closed permanently. The dining experience lacked black pudding but offered delicious Spanish dishes. Overall, the hotel provides a satisfactory stay with minor drawbacks.
The hotel is conveniently located right by the park entrance, but it's disappointing to hear the on-site pub is closed permanently. The rooms are equipped with three single beds, which significantly reduces space but offers comfortable sleeping arrangements. The service is accommodating, although a bit more training in customer service could enhance the experience. The dining options lack some variety, especially missing black pudding, but the iced and frozen coffee is a unique touch.
