Conveniently situated in Bedford
This is the second stay here and unfortunately we had the same experience in the morning. Going down to breakfast not too late, there just seems to be a lack of staff, running out of everything, not enough cutlery, no preserves or spreads, croissants ran out, no mugs, cappuccino machine ran out... no fried eggs which makes a full English Breakfast in our opinion.... pity as the rooms are fine.

It is acceptable for the price, the rooms are not so dayed but still you can smell the overuse, it feels as a very busy hotel.
