Tv was a nightmare! Huge screen but on Tuesday I couldn’t turn it off or mute it so had a terrible night. Emergency phone number didn’t respond. After new batteries it still wasn’t working properly. Needs a technician. I’m an elderly solo guest so really missed the tv. I have requested some financial compensation.

A lovely stay

The team could not have been more friendly or helpful and we had a great selection of hot drinks available in our room. Breakfast was great too.
