a slightly underwhelming stay

poor sausagesold bedding

The breakfast was rather disappointing. the sausages and bacon seemed to be of poor quality, i noticed. also, the room felt quite dated. it could really use some refreshing. the bedding felt old, and the duvet seemed flat. It wasn't the best. i think, overall, the room needed an update.

a pleasant visit

helpful staffgreat locationdust smell

I found the staff very helpful. dietary requirements were taken into account at both evening meals and breakfasts, and alternatives were offered. the location is great for exploring. It allows for a quieter stay just outside the main area.

I noticed the room smelled heavily of dust and mustiness. Also the carpet seemed not to be hoovered well, if at all. (the rest of the room was clean, though). the walls seemed paper thin.

the room was nicely decorated and clean. the bathroom included a modern bath with an over-bath shower, a great convenience. the breakfast was lovely (the self-serve option made it efficient). i found ample electrical points in the room, very useful.
