"Staff were friendly and accomodating, however shower facilities and room entertainment was woefully inadequate."

7.0

Quiet peaceful location, nice facilities.

Shower smells like mould, shower head sprays water all over the place and bathroom floor is constantly wet, thanks to inadequate sealing of shower door.
