Really enjoyed our stay here and the area is very pretty and high quality.The room was great very clean and had everything we needed.Location was good as a stroll away were the main amenities with great shops bars restaurants and green spaces. My only concern was we got the impression there may have been staffing issues as we waited for our breakfast for quite a while (we had to pre fill in breakfast forms) plus the portions/accesible items were not very substantial.Tea/coffee/juice had to be pre ordered the sugar and butter portions were brought to our table instead of being accessible...for the price we paid for breakfast it felt a little underwhelming as if they were being careful with portions.If staying here try to get a room at the rear of the property as road noise can be disturbing.

The room was great. Cleanliness was amazing. The issue was the wait at breskfast. We had too ask the young girl too serve us, she was more intent on cleaning tables, which I found a bit odd as there were only 2 tables having breskfast. We had to continually ask for coffee/ orange juice. We waited over 20 minutes for our breakfast to arrive, yet we had ordered it when we arrived.
