a stay with shortcomings
mouldy grout faulty tap
the breakfast was quite good with plenty of different options available.
i had issues with the bathroom, specifically its cleanliness. the shower had mould in the grout around the tiles, a plastic shower head would not stay in position so i had to hold it. the cold tap also started dispensing hot water while i was using it, something i found both bizarre and frustrating..

fantastic stay!
excellent reception friendly staff great value fair price
Breakfast had a great value for money. I saw locals dropping in for their morning meals! all staff members were friendly and efficient. free wifi was available, and it had excellent reception throughout the building. the beer was under £4. I think that's a very fair price.
the salad bar was without any cucumber :(.
