large car park comfortable restaurant dirty pool hot hot tub
the hotel offered a large car park. it was connected to the armadillo and next to the ovo hydro arena. the breakfast had many choices and the restaurant was comfortable! i also had dinner at the hotel, it was filling and tasty.
the pool area felt terrible, and it was in desperate need of repair. i had hoped to relax in this area, but it was so grim i only visited once and stayed a short while. the hot tub was far too hot, there was litter around the edge of the pool. the changing rooms were filthy.
