Dining room quiet but had to wait extended time for meal as seemingly more important guests being served elsewhere. Eventually given some complementary free bread but only at second time of complaining. Suggest better training in customer service required.

A very nice stay

A decent, pleasant hotel in a good location. Didn’t eat in the restaurant whilst we were there but heard good things from others in our congregation that did eat there. Friendly staff in the hotel and restaurant/bar.

Tired rooms, particularly the bathroom (loose fittings, water damaged panelling) nowhere to hang anything in bathroom. Cleaning staff making the best they could. Wardrobe hanging space compromised by useless full size ironing table and iron, making it unusable for hanging clothes. Very pleasant view over common.
