No room key the entire time I was there (just an endless series of excuses). Every time I went to my room, I had to be let in by Reception staff. As for the room itself, it was under a pizza joint they have on their roof and so had to endure endless scraping noises on my ceiling from chairs being moved around on their tiled floor. Breakfast (not full as advertised, more continental) is served in a shed in the garden. They allege this place is 4 star. What?! Best Western accredited? Either Best Western has very low standards, they do not monitor or they just don't care.
