Staff were lovely, but there needs to be a serious investment in the property. My room was ok, if a bit tired and “beige”. My colleagues room smelt of mold….

This hotel should be shut and totally refurbished as its in an poor state,the photos on web site have been CGI as in reality its nothing like the hotel. Every one is spoke to had a problems staying at the hotel and one couple i spoke to at breakfast had their celling fall in on them in the night and they had been in 4 different rooms over the week. Simply either totally refurbish or demolish and rebuild as the location is great. I will never stay at this group of hotels again.

Firstly, we can’t fault the staff, always friendly and helpful. However, the hotel is very dilapidated and requires some urgent TLC. The spa change rooms are disgusting, the showers barely spray water and Luke warm at best. The room was clean but again needs modernising. It was very noisy through the night and the window had gaps in it, making it drafty and noisy from outside. Overall we had a pleasant stay and it served the purpose, but this hotel is really starting to look tired and urgently needs some investment. We have stayed in hotel much less in terms of the price and they were in far better condition.

The property is over values in any aspect. Cost of dinner and breakfast is much higher than it should be. Property is dated in any aspect. Just an example - no telephone in room and beds are very narrow

My experience wasn't as bad as other reviews. It's a 2* property, so don't have too high expectations. The staff were friendly, the room reasonable (had a bath, which is great after a day's hiking), breakfast was good, facilities a bit old fashioned but comfortable. It also has a rather faded leisure centre with gym, pool, sauna, if you can drag your aching limbs there.

Disappointed. Shame on you Orbitz for not vetting your properties. This place is run down and falsely advertised. Room 105- oldest bedding and furniture seen since 1970’s. No heat for 2 days. Maintenance never came. Shower barely has pressure and cold water never got beyond lukewarm. The pool and gym were the only attractive thing about this place. Don’t book beyond £70 per night - it’s not worth more. Location is perfect and ample free parking.

Its not the staff fault, they do a good job but i dont feel the manager/owner inspres of motivates as this place certainly needs a lick of paint - thats an understatement. Loud music all night i could hear from my room as there was a private function. Overall, 2 stars is beyond generous, but the staff are doing their best in tough conditions.
