Very comfortable bed! The room was pretty clean, around the shower screen was the only complaint. Kettle didn't work, had to hold the button for it to boil. On arrival had to go and find someone to check in. At breakfast, had to go and find staff to ask for items that were missing. Weren't shown to a table so we chose one- which wasn't reserved- then were asked to move as it had no cutlery for breakfast. Another couple came in and sat at the exact same table - there was plenty of other tables free as we were the only ones in there and the staff didn't ask them to move but brought cutlery over. We had a bottle of wine for our room but no corkscrew, when asking for one the staff were quite rude and reluctant to open it for us, although they did, we were made to feel like we'd done something wrong.

The Manager was quite friendly at checkin but did not tell us the buffet rules I paid 500 and they started taking food away before everyone had eaten, we were told there was a 2 hr rule but they took full trays of food away that I had paid for, looked like they were taking it for the next party of staff members very disappointing to say the least.

Not good

Most of the staff at the bar were very pleasant and polite. The two ladies who were checking me in were incredible rude. Continued their conversation for a good minute and didn’t acknowledge me, then looked at the computer screen and demanded ‘you checking in’ Then in the evening one of these ladies (blonde bob hairstyle) was serving behind the bar. I asked for two bottles of water, only sparkling was available when I asked for tap instead (as I did not want sparkling) she banged the glass down and rolled her eyes. All the ther staff were pleasant enough, including the lady at reception in the evening. The room was grubby and while cleanish, had many marks and stains. The curtains also did not close properly making it a bit unnerving for a email travelling alone. It’s a shame as location was ideal, but I won’t be back
