pleasant receptionist super clean room well cooked breakfast ample choice
We were celebrating our silver wedding anniversary, returning after 25 years. The hotel made it so special! the receptionist and restaurant staff were all very pleasant. the room was beautiful and super clean. breakfast had plenty of choices. Everything tasted well cooked and presented.
The ev charging points are standard 13amp sockets, delivering only 1.3kw. If you want more than 30 miles of charge for an overnight stay, you might be disappointed.

missing drawers stingy water
The room, a 'double bedroom', lacked a chest of drawers. It only had a hanging rail! i found this inconvenient for storing folded clothes. also, for a so-called 4-star hotel, the absence of complimentary items like bathrobes and slippers was like a corner was cut. only one small bottle of water was provided. This seems rather stingy.
