The room was clean and the staff friendly. dDdn't care for their continental breakfast. They just weren't on top of things. We got there 8 o'clock to eat , no scramble eggs,a few sausages,coffee was out. I had the last packet of oat meal. They just didnt keep up with making food, that's how I saw it.
