"The hotel is fantastic. It met our needs. We had a fantastic stay. Limited dining options are not an issue as there are numerous eating places around the hotel. The only slight downside is that the pool area was a bit too deep for a young pre-schooler still learning to swim. It was also a bit on the cold side and the lack of showering facilities at the pool area meant that people had to return to their rooms to clean up. "
