strange smell window noise
the leisure centre seemed nice i suppose and the pool looked clean enough from the outside.
they stuck me in a room that smelled vaguely of old socks. the shower temperature fluctuated wildly and nearly scalded me a couple of times. plus the noise from some sort of machine outside the window made sleep a real challenge, even with the complimentary earplugs.

I found a fantastic sports facility and swimming pool. Demi, Lergha, and Tori treated us well. Nothing was too much trouble. The staff displayed multi-skilled expertisewith a really good overall experience. As it was our wedding anniversary, they upgraded us to the best suite!

I found the leisure facilities very appealing. The pool was of a good size and the steam room and sauna worked well. The bar had a nice atmosphere (I enjoyed a glass of wine after dinner). The restaurant offered very good food.
