Bed & pillows were very uncomfortable. Breakfast was a disaster! Not enough tables. Ran out of plates then mugs & glasses & then no cutlery. Ran out of hot food & then bread & the coffee machine ran out of milk. Not enough staff to sort it out.

Avoid, avoid, avoid. The room we stayed in smelt of stale smoke, the sofa bed was too small for my children to share so my son had to sleep on cushions on the floor... the main bed was awful: small and creaky with a dip in the middle. Also the room temperature kept fluctuating between boiling hot and freezing cold. Consequently, my family and I got no sleep at all. There was no one at reception to speak to in the morning on checkout. I have complained and fed back to the hotel via Expedia without satisfaction.

No hot water for shower. Room was cold because heating wasn’t working but electric heater was available although bathroom was still cold. TV didn’t work. Sofa was stained. Shower tray chipped. Dirty plates left on breakfast table but in fairness to staff they were rushed off their feet.

Food service in the restaurant took two hours for dinner, they were clearly in some sort of meltdown. Dishes came out in pairs and it took and hour for our group of 12. Mine last - just a salad!
