Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Massively overpriced for what you get. Barely spoken to on arrival in reception and none of the usual information you get like what time breakfast is or where. Nothing on check out either to ask how the stay was. The room was old and dated and smelt like someone had been smoking in there previously. The team at breakfast however were much friendly and helpful.
