Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Staff & service
The room was standard, slept well and the bed comfy. On arrival reception staff were polite and courteous, we were advised to book for the restaurant that evening, we did, but they were not busy so entered 15 mins before the booked time slot - this caused confusion for the staff. The food was lovely but service very slow, to the point we felt ignored - it took almost two hours for a main and desert. We were not offered a dessert menu so had to follow a member of staff to ask for one. Bery unhappy

Very let down by breakfast. Had to wait to be seated. Tables drab and chipped in places. Unimaginative presentation of food. Asking for a fresh egg got a eye roll attitude response from kitchen staff member. Not impressed!

Disappointing

Walls were paper thin so we could hear everything happening next door, windows didn't close properly so no sound proofing from the traffic of the road despite paying for a "tree line" room. Room was okay, nothing special especially at the price. Room service was excellent however with really tasty food. Facilities are excellent but you go to a hotel to sleep and we couldn't really do that with all the noise. From the room we were in, I wouldn't class this as a four star hotel. When we mentioned the issues, hotel staff said we should have said something during the night. What are they going to do? Come to the room and install soundproofing? Turn up at 2am with screwdrivers to fix the window? That's a blanket response to shift responsibility onto the guest because I'll guarantee despite us saying about the window nobody will have been sent to fix it before the next guest stayed in the room.
