Dog Barking ruined our stay

The hotel was lovely and clean. Our stay was ruined by a dog barking all morning! We had a night away from the kids first time in years - we expected a nice lay in but was woken at 7:30am by a dog continuously barking in the room opposite - it was still barking at 10:30am when we left.

The staff were very friendly, especially the redhead who works in the restaurant, such a nice girl. The bedroom could’ve been cleaned better in some areas, but the bedding was clean so that was the most important part for me. Otherwise I enjoyed my stay and recommend the diner across the road for a decent meal out.

Environment over customer satisfaction

The hotel did not inform me that it is their policy to not service your room when checking in. The first day my room wasn’t serviced I thought they had just forgotten so left it. The second day my room wasnt serviced I called reception and was told that they don’t even make your bed unless you request it. Wholly disappointed by what would have been a nice stay. They said it was for environmental purposes but it looked as though they were being cheap with employing cleaning staff to me.
