Don’t forget the smokers please!

It was a lovely hotel in a great location but the smoking area was very poor. It was just a corner in the car park. Nowhere to sit and relax and the ashtray on the wall was broken. Very much like an after thought. A bench would have been lovely there and an easy solution.

Overall the hotel feels dark, cramped and slightly shabby. Complicated story, but ended up with a cold room service meal for which I was double charged. The reception struggled to refund one of the charges, but did eventually get it sorted the next day. That was followed by a meal in the restaurant which managed to stay in my stomach for about 60 minutes, before it came through my system explosively over the next 12 hours. Disappointed.
