Sam

Hotel was ok, quite a nice restaurant, the rooms were ok albeit a bit dated although traditional. The beds were ok, not that comfortable to be honest. A bit hard. The hot water in the shower was intermittent and it must be shared with others as during the shower it went scolding hot then back to normal without changing the taps. The restaurant must have been busy as 3-4 items on the food menu were out of stuck, plus low on wines too. Bit of refurbishment throughout the hotel would be good. Friendly staff throughout. Thanks

Comfy bed, carpet in room could do with a hoover, bits kept sticking to my feet. Bathroom was clean. Drunk annoying man in bar swearing at us, can’t believe staff were still serving him! Otherwise staff nice and helpful.

Good points. Family room size was great, it was nice and dark. That's were the positives end. The breakfast service was terrible, not the usual MacDonald experience, ended nearly an hour early without warning to accommodate a football teams stay. The window in the room did not close fully, leaving a draught on our youngest. No management present when requested.
