My boyfriend and i were visiting his friends for the weekend and i come accross this hotel online. i wasnt expecting much as we only paid £45 per night including continental breakfast but i was surprised at how nice the hotel actually was. the public areas seemed to be very clean and modern aswell as our room. The room was small but had everthing we needed, good flatscreen tv, comfy bed. Bathroom was very clean. We had dinner on the night we checked in and it was very quiet as no-one else was eating but our food was good and service was also good. Breakfast on the first morning i was quite disappointed with only because of the service.
i enjoyed the continental breakfast as there was alot of choice and items i really like but the waitress who greeted us made us feel like we were an inconvenience. Didnt get one smile out of her. We came down to breakfast over 30 mins BEFORE breakfast ended but she made us feel like we were causing a problem. ALL the tables had been used and we managed to find one clean one with no cutlery at all. we had to then hunt for items from other tables. Although we didnt have a cooked breakfst included in our rate she didnt even ask if we wanted to order anything. The next morning a gentleman served us at breakfast and he asked is we wanted to order cooked breakfast which my boyfriend did but he didnt ask how he wanted his egg and just gave him fried. We had a good stay apart from the breakfast service on the first morning, but I would go back to this hotel again
