Fawlty Towers

1) Normal check-in is at 15:00 hours. We arrived at 13:30 and went to reception to pay for two days of car parking. We were told that the room was not ready and to come back at 15:00. We came back at 15:30 and was given the keys to room 112. On entering, the room was not made up and in a complete mess. It was reported to Reception and was offered a corner room with a limited sea view. This was refused as we had booked a sea view room. We asked if the room could be made up whilst we waited but the house keeping staff had gone home. Reception gave us another room with a sea view and we moved in. 2) Dinner was served by what looked like the maintenance man wearing his work clothes. He was the only waiter on duty. The next day we saw him cleaning the car park. I have photos but have not posted them. 3) Day 2 Dinner, the wine glass placed on our table was broken with a large chunk missing from it resulting in spillage when filling with water. We have stayed here before with no complaints but this was not a good experience considering it is advertised as a 4 star hotel.

We arrived later than planned and asked if we could get a drink the night receptionist said the bar was closed. We then asked another member of staff If we could get a soft drink he said he would ask and then we were left sitting in the lobby waiting for him to return and he never did. We then asked the night receptionist where his colleague was and explained and he completely dismissed us. We asked that all we were asking for was a soft drink and he became very rude towards us and said it's water or nothing as this was not Las Vegas.!!!. We commented on how rude he was and he then claimed we were being racist towards him. I told him not to throw the race card into this and he completely dismissed us by telling us we should have booked somewhere else. Absolutely terrible attitude. I would not recommend this hotel to stay at. The night receptionist needs to go on to some form customer service course. Definitely not a place to stay at.

Dated rooms

The reception area looked amazing, but our room was very dated, dirty carpet, worn furniture and it was really hot in the rooms. Windows looked like they were falling apart. Corridor smelt like cannabis. You can hear the people in the next room talking. The location of the hotel was good but I wouldn’t return to this hotel.
