Can't smell the sulfur from where you are staying. Really nice place to stay for a getaway out of town with peace and quiet.

Nothing, can't fault the property at all.

Great communication and support for rescheduling requests were very appreciated, check in staff were lovely and accomodating with requests and checkin. The shower had great pressure and was spacious but that’s probably about it with regard to the stay overall. Spacious room. Comfy bed. Had a private spa in our bathroom.

The pools weren’t hot pools as first thought. Room was average and could do with some TLC. Curtains were hard to open and close as the hooks on the rail were sticking. Car park is far from the room/ wings
