I found the staff VERY friendly. The room offered ample tea, coffee, and even hot chocolate. There were plenty of towels and the beds were really comfortable with many pillows. Breakfast provided a huge choice of cereals, jams, and fresh bread. The hot food order was simple.
The hotel rooms needed some updates. I noticed a large crack in the bathroom and the rubber around the bath looked discoloured.
