"I really love staying at Eden Oak. It’s a lovely hotel close to the city centre. I love the TV having lots of special channels that I wouldn’t normally get at home. Breakfast is great, however being coeliac I wish they had a seperate toaster for gluten free toast. The room I stayed in needed some attention, multiple items were broken including the toilet roll holder, curtains, bin. split system (still worked, just had a part hanging off it). Some simple fixes and upgrades really would make this place perfect. I will absolutely be back."
