They didn’t provide the room service due to the shortage staff. Breakfast area was crowded and miss managed we had to wait to find a table for long time. Lots of people arrived at the same time between 8-9 am and the hotel staff could manage properly the tables was dirty and the foods quality weren’t good at all. It doesn’t worse For the price of 125£ per night

Okay but not great

This stay was okay, but not as good as previous stays. Guest bed wasn’t made up upon arrival although several emails were sent beforehand requesting this. No house keeping service available on Saturday. However the breakfast was good.

Unfortunately there was a staff shortage so any room servicing was not available at a very busy time with lots of guests The staff who were working were very kind and efficient and had to tolerate drunken abuse from a guest in the bar which was uncomfortable for other guests particularly children Table clearing at breakfast was a mammoth task and the staff responsible (two gentlemen we could see) were fantastic, credit where due, outside the building bins full and messy but we could see why

Not clean

I believe it could be cleaner. I found someone’s hair everywhere, on the bed, in the bathroom. The table was tacky, it seems that someone spilled a drink and wasn’t cleaned. The bathroom didn’t seem to be cleaned in a long time, I think they only changed the bin bags and that’s it. The room doesn’t have do be brand new, with all new furnitures and appliances, etc, but come on… at least clean it has to be. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful but the state of the room really let me down. I checked out 1 day earlier and drove home.

Perfect

Check in was very easy and friendly. I got all the info I needed and was offered a gf room which was great. The room was large, clean and comfortable, with all the extras that I could have wanted. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful and it was the perfect base for my few days in the area
