Room clean, good facilities, kettle microwave fridge. Would have like 2 double beds instead of a double and a single. Bathroom gave it 4 stars due to toilet running all night and the door did not close even if locked. Easy to find great location

Spacious clean room. Supplied with bottled water that was topped up each day. This was appreciated because the tap water wasn't that nice. Fairly comfortable bed apart from most of the pillows were too high; managed to find one suitable pillow. Weak wifi. The heater struggled to heat the room; this would have been partly due to the draught coming from gaps around the front door. Tiny fridge. Minimal crockery provided; two small dinner plates with knives but no forks. Provided with a tea towel but no other kitchen cleaning equipment. Great to have face washers but no hand towel.

I had dinner at the restaurant the first night of my stay. I was served by a short slim ladie (i don't know her name). She got my order wrong, which happens, but when I spoke to her about the problem, she was very rude and told me it was my fault she ordered my the wrong dish? The problem was not resolved and I left the restaurant unhappy. I have never bern treated so rudely in all my life, this really did ruin my night.
