a very mixed experience

clean roominadequate heaterpoor wi-fi
the staff were lovely. i also liked that the room was clean.
i had issues with the breakfast i paid for. when i arrived at the time breakfast was supposed to start, no one was around. also, the hot water wasn't turned on, so i got a refund and went elsewhere. the room itself was also cold because the heater wasn't adequate and the wi-fi didn't reach my room!

Pleasant Experience

good breakfastcomfortable bedsbroken tiles
The staff was friendly. Breakfast had a good cooked option. Beds were very comfortable. I also appreciated the clean room.
In my room, I found the bathroom was a bit dated. There were a few broken tiles. the bin was also broken. I think attention to repairs and replacements would improve the stay.
