Cheap is the best I have to say about this place - in terms of the accommodation anyway. Rooms fairly unpleasant, but you get what you pay for.
We had paid for breakfast and, having checked that we could upgrade our inclusive continental breakfast to a full english - one pound extra on the menu - we did. When I came to settle up for all of us we were charged the full whack; over £20. Despite pointing out the absurdity of the situation, and the previous conversation we were totally stonewalled by the young woman apparently running the restaurant, who had been cold and unattentive throughout. She was adamant that we had not had the breakfast we'd paid for with the room, therefore we had to pay for a separate breakfast.
Unwilling to be ripped off we demanded the inclusive breakfast too, thinking she'd spot the absurdity of the situation and back down. She didn't, so we then ate a second breakfast to make the point.
A ludicrous situation that made us feel horribly ripped off. The low-quality rooms would have been acceptable for the price; the terrible service ensured that we'd always remember The Bridge for all the wrong reasons.
