We waited about 15 minutes to check in, because there was no receptionist,and the girl serving at the cafe had to do it.
We freshened up and went down to the lounge area to have a drink and unwind after driving 350 miles only to find there was a children's party going on in the children's playroom, but the children thought it would be more fun jumping on the sofas taking photos of themselves on the information machine.
We were going to have an evening meal in the restaurant,then found that it didn't open until 9 pm.
The receptionist came over to us and said there was going to be a noisy wedding party for 130 people and suggested we go to another hotel at their expense, which we did,but then had to pay €10 for a taxi to get back in the morning!
