8/10 Good
"It's a solid four star but a long way from a five star. Very comfortable bed, but old AC unit took hours to cool the room and had to use ceiling fan for half the night on very high speed. While very clean, it's worn in places, paint peeling, dated / worn fittings etc. Food was good, had buffet at evening. If you want a cheaper option than the five stars on ECR, it's good and seems suitable for children, with very shallow pool (I prefer deeper as I like to swim properly). and other games areas. It's a bit noisy as right next to very busy junction. But staff were very helpful and pool staff very friendly. It's not like in the photos, that is for sure!! Much more dated."
