Good family hotel - the rooms need some TLC

The public areas in the hotel are great - recently refurbished and modernised. The restaurant is good - and the children’s buffet was definitely a win. It was nice to have the pool, too. The accommodation rooms were clean but basic. They need a bit of an overhaul.
