I found the room to be recently renovated with a good-sized bathroom! A coffee machine and a kettle were available along with a mini fridge. I appreciated the fan in the room. The shower was excellent! Breakfast included a wide selection from both a continental and hot food menu.
The bed was slightly soft for my personal taste.

the food had good quality and presentation. there was a wide variety of choices for all meals. the decor had a great deal of thought put into the appearance and comfort of the bedrooms, bar, and restaurant.
i arrived before check-in and asked for coffee, the lady asked if i wanted to add a gratuity. i was not given any check out procedure. i received an email saying i had left a tap running and was liable to pay £50 for damages.
