Flight , airport parking, transfer and hotel only cost £250 for us both so I didn't expect much of the accomodation and was prepared to move or upgrade. We were very pleasantly surprised, we were given a second floor room in B block.... More

Out door poor closed and not much entertainment going on. We weren't very happy about our accommodation so paid more to get upgraded to the hotel. You stay in... More
