    Excellent staff, reasonably priced food. Room could do with a better mattress.

    The room (10) had 7 stairs both up & down to the bathroom, which was only one stair height below the actual bedroom - why was this? It seemed ridiculous given the eves height & was very annoying given that my husband is 6’ & 82 & constantly banged his head on the way to the bathroom in the night! Also, as reported to the staff, the loo & the shower leaked & the extractor fan in the bathroom didn’t turn off - at all, day or night. There was no auxiliary way to override this. The bed was quite hard, most places we stay the beds have either a memory foam mattress or a mattress topper. We are used to a Visprung mattress at home & usually find a Hypnos or similar mattress in hotel rooms so found this a very hard mattress & therefore did not sleep as well as expected. Very much looking forward to a good nights sleep now we are home. There was nowhere to unpack your suitcases such as a fold up suitcase rest; it could do with a make up mirror in the bathroom as the mirrors were so far away a short sighted person such as myself cold not see in them!

    All the staff were extremely friendly & helpful.

    The staff were busy and check in was rushed, if you were hoping for an evening meal, book a table before hand as they were full. This won't deter us from booking again in the future.

    The room was clean and comfortable, lovely bed and pillows, just right for a night visiting family.

    info about breakfast could be easier to find - could not see this on my booking - also I have already fed back one re the stay so this is about the third time of receiving a request.

    wasn't actually sure if breakfast was included - couldn't see this info anywhere - some things were which we discovered - no idea how you got the toast though. Room was very nice - shame all rooms have showers - I do like a bath and try to book rooms with a bath. Dinner was very nice - good prices.

    As I said we have stayed here a few times. We have noticed a slow decline in the food to the point that we will use a local restaurant next time we stay .The decor in the rooms is getting a little tired as well

    We have stayed before so knew what we were getting. check in easy, friendly staff, I arrived a liitle early and they had my room ready. I was glad I was in an internal room a the traffic starts early and is very noisy, with the heat,not opening a window would have made it very uncomfortable
