    Liked : Staff were very helpful & approachable. When we asked for things such as extra hangers etc, they were provided.

    Disliked : Breakfast was limited. The property could do with updating & redecoration. When it rained water would come in through the glass panels. Property has a bit too much glass & I think some net curtains could be added to improve privacy.

    A great modern venue...

    Liked : The Cubes looked just like the photos when we arrived; stylish, minimal and reinforced. We enjoyed our stay. The Chef and the staff at the Cubes were very responsive and helpful. The food was great for the price (albeit a little salty for my palette) and the location was good.

    The pool was lovely and the site was relatively quiet. W-fi was available and, I would just like to say again, the staff were great!

    Disliked : If you're clumsy, this may not be the property for you as all surfaces are hard! The Cubes are exactly like their photos; made from concrete, metal and glass. Be careful on the stairs because if you trip, you might sustain a significant injury!

    The bath mats slide a little and the doors need some WD40, but otherwise the property is really good.

    We really liked the Chef. He was so hard working and accommodating, but there were small mistakes made with our orders on occasion and there was never any porridge. As all food is cooked fresh, it can take a little bit of time to be made, but you can order your food in advance, so as long as you're wise and do this, you're OK.

    We did experience some issues with the shower. The hot water was faster and stronger than the cold water, so you either boiled or froze. We could never find a good in between. This needs to be looked at.
