We ordered room service and were very happy with our salads. The bed was very comfortable and it was great to have a room which opened out to a private space for your poodle. Staff were lovely without exception.

Biggest feedback and reason we won’t return is the fold out lounge is very uncomfortable only book if you have very small children or 1 child sleeping on it. Room is big enough to add a couple of single beds downstairs would sacrifice floor space for this. Also appeared they used the second pillow on the main bed to make the fold out so bring extra ones. Can walk to restaurants which was good upstairs bed comfy (except the pillow missing). Reception staff are lovely check in and out was quick.

Room was neat and tidy - bathroom was great. Breakfast selection ie alternative milks you had to ask for - ran out of certain foods and didn’t have any supply in next day either. Jams would have been nicer in their own individual packets - not hygienic enough.

Friendly staff as usual. I wouldn’t stay in room 120 as it faces 2 roads therefore noisy truck and car sounds especially 6.30am in the morning. The shower in this room has no hub on the floor therefore water splashes far and wide on the floor. The room it self is huge with a massive balcony with out door furniture.
