Rooms were clean the room we had did not have a room and was very hot
Stayed here two weeks ago and had a lovely stay breakfast was at 7-00 till 10-00 and we went down at 7-00 and the hot and cold buffet was excellent. We stayed there last weekend on the 7th of march and was told the breakfast was at 7-00 till 10-00 we went down at 7-00 and was told the breakfast was at 7-30 as our train was at8-00 we left at 7-20 to catch the train the coffee machine wasn't even out need to get there act together and tell us the right time for breakfast
It was a decent stay. They were slow to provide room service. We had to ask multiple times for them to finally do it. The walls are also pretty thin so keep that in mind. The location was pretty good as well
Worn out carpets, uncomfortable bed, poor food, abrupt staff. This hotel needs a change of ownership and management to restore it to the hotel I remember from twenty years ago.
