Room was comfortable but not the cleanest. There were dirty marks around the toilet seat that could have easily been cleaned. While having breakfast i left my table to get a coffee and returned to find that my breakfast which i had only half eaten had been removed. No one available on reception to tell so sent an email with no reply, very dissapointing.

Great location, clean and comfortable
Lovely small hotel in a great location. Receptionist was very friendly, room was clean and comfortable and the shower was brilliant. Breakfast was a little chaotic which is the only thing that let it down. Selection for continental was limited, no pastries, cheese, cold meat etc, just toast, cereal and canned fruit. You have to decide what you want the night before, yet the waitresses come to your table to take your order in the morning still.
