Fantastic last minute night away

Room was a little more dated than others we've stayed in at this hotel but still totally spotless and even though it was a standard double the bed was enormous. Staff were pleasant as always and the food superb fabulous stay.

The experience was spoilt by a lack of hot water in the bathroom. It had been raining heavily and we were soaked through, only to find that we couldn't have a hot shower before dinner. I've stayed in many hotels and this was the first time this has happened. It meant going down to dinner feeling grubby, which took the shine off the experience.

Unprofessional response to a customer's request

My stay was okay. The room is clean and spacious. I am not happy with their response to my request on early check-in. I sent a mail to them requesting for an early check-in around 1pm. They acknowledged my mail and told me they will review and see the possibility . Nobody got back to me and my request was not granted. They should have provided feedback to enable me improvise
