Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Parking is available,would have loved signposting to the hotel ,I went through the other route and it was pitch dark I loved the breakfast ,good value for money
Negative: There wasn’t any complementary water until I asked for it ,I would at least think this should be standard for most hotels The heating wasn’t efficient for the room I was in ,the shower was so hot and I couldn’t get it to be moderate heat ,again maybe I would have asked for help but it was a long day and I didn’t want to bother anyone
