Merilyn

Not enough towels or pillows in room to start, bathroom could be refreshed but a decent size, shower had to be stepped up into & wasn’t very big. Bed was comfortable. We were in 133 & it was a trek to get to it. Looked out to the car park at back & got to listen to the garbage & bottles being dumped. Found a spider on my towel this morning.

Lovely few days on the North East coast. Breakfast was just what you need with both cooked options and fruit/pastry. The staff were lovely in all areas of the hotel including the gym&pool. You can't go far wrong. Our room was comfy, clean and perfect for a short stay.
