Staff at breakfast were unfriendly. I used my fingers to remove rhe cooked toast and a woman with a foreign accent maybe Polish, who was on cleaning duty, rebuked me for doing so. I felt like a child being scolded.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Disappointed with cleanliness.
On arrival reception tried to charge me for room even though I had already paid. They apologised when I showed receipt and said a new system in place. The first room was terrible, a disabled room smelt of vomit, no pillows, no kettle or mugs, dirty towel. I returned to reception, they apologised and said again a new system in place, I was given a voucher for 2 complimentary drinks and a snack, they allocated another room which although the bed was clean and comfortable the waste bin in bathroom was full from previous occupant. On a positive note the macaroni cheese I had in restaurant was lovely and bar staff very friendly and attentive.
