Nice hotel. The bathroom needs work.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice to have tea and biscuits etc. in the room. Unfortunately, I had to head out before 8 am so missed breakfast but heard from friends that it was good. The room was fine, the strange layout of electrical sockets with one unusable behind the bed head. It would have been more helpful to have the USB socket near the bed rather than over by the kettle, on the other side of the room. The battery cover on the TV was missing. The bathroom was poor, unfortunately. The shower cubicle was awfully small and just rather disappointing for a hotel. I am 6' 3" and bearly fit. The shower tray creaked as I stood on it, it has not been fitted properly and beware it will break at some point! The silicon was interesting, haven't seen a hit-or-miss silicone before. Expect it is not doing its job. The shower curtain was trailing on the ground and it looked like someone had recently wet the floor before I entered the room and not moped it up. Someone desperately needs to clean out the bathroom fan it is loud, I suspect it has never been removed and cleaned. It would have been good to have the shower bottles in the cubicle and some soap by the basin rather than using the same body lotion for both. The mirror with the shelf was cheap and felt it was going to break when using the soap. Most of these points are fairly simple to fix so hopefully this review is read and constructive. They were small niggles, still had a very nice time.

Not good for old folk
The room was small for a double bed that when i leant against it it scooted accoss te oom (safety issue). *Could not have the shower st the right high as it kept sliding back down to lowest point, the rainfal shower well could not work that one out! *Air circulation there was non couldnt open the window! No fan! And in the adverts it said airconditioning well I would like to know where that was. * the noise at 2-3 am from ye drunks out side was not appreciated. * the internal spiral stairs are very narow and I found these difficult to manage a few times I was worried about falling. I WILL NOT BE STAYING THERE AGAIN DUE TO THE ABOVE
