Faulty shower
Very friendly amd helpful reception staff when booking in. Shower did not drain and flooded bathroom. The house keeping member told us she had reported the problem the day before, yet they still booked us into the room. Reception staff offered nothing to resolve the problem, i had to ask for another room so we were able to shower!! Very much delayed our day. Nice breakfast, but overall very disappointing.

Positives: The staff at the novotel were helpful and friendly. The additional activities for children were appreciated. The bed and bedding were comfy. Rituals toiletries were lovely. Plenty of towels and complimentary water was lovely. Breakfast food was good and gluten free options appreciated. Ways to improve: Decor is very tired and in need of rejuvenation. Carpets had seen better days.At breakfast gluten free options and decaf coffee was not readily avaliable. Once requested it took quite a while to have these items delivered.Children said the sofa beds were uncomfortable. Lots of local conatruction so quite noisy.

Cold
Although the room was well furnished and comfortable we were cold. There were no instructions for the heater and, although we turned up the thermostat, it took over an hour for the temperature to go up 2 degrees. There did not appear to be any way to have heating without the noisy fan. We enquired at reception and they said they would send maintenance. No one came during the 2 hours we were getting ready to go out and when we returned later in the evening the heating had been turned off! This was disappointing as everything else about our stay was fine.
