This property was absolutely perfect for our reqirements. Only a couple things that could have been better but werent in anyway the hotels fault - the lift was out if order and there was paint work being done, this made things slightly difficult with a toddler. Also the staff were amazing! We managed to leave behind a beloved teddy, and the staff are willing to hold onto it until we can get back there from our trip. Wonderful stay

Lift not working. Rooms hot, no air conditioning. A small fan was in the cupboard but I was not aware of it until the morning. Bad night's sleep. Difficulty getting room key cards to work. Problem with billing. I had prepaid 2 rooms but had to pay for one room in check in as it was claimed only one room was paid for. How can this be when 2 rooms were reserved? Was told this morning that it has been fixed. I hope so, I will check my bank statement later. Shame, we have stayed here before and enjoyed it.

Poor Wifi connectivity

One night business stay with no internet access. EE 5G - (not the hotels fault) was very poor, so thought the hotel free wi-fi would make up for this. Unfortunately this was as bad with the signal skipping in and out every 15-30 seconds. I brought this to the attention of the hotel clerk on the desk, who gave me the staff network password. This was the same. I was therefore unable to work or communicate from my room. (GF Room 5) I suggested that the router should be re-booted, but not sure if this happened as nothing changed re. internet access during my stay. I wouldn't stay here again on this basis. Food in the restaurant was ok, breakfast was good
