Arrived late, left early so didnt experience much of the hotel. Room 1101 - a classic double nice enough with clean bed linen and towels, a large flat screen TV and decent furnishing and 6' double bed.Love making noise could be heard from one of the adjoining rooms - but sadly not from our that night (lol). No view from room. I'd give the bathroom a 7 outof 10 as it suffered from the usual british hotel standard of the odd dusty area (back of disabled rail). Overall good value for what we paid. We would return.

Check in efficiency was painful, & for some time quite concerning.. with more or less zero customer service, reassurance or initiative thrown into the mix. My partner checked in a between 1-2 hours before I arrived at the hotel. By time I did, the night porter had just recently begun his shift. He struggled to find the booking details- i should add that my partner's phone was, at the time recently stolen.. therefore, nonexistent! Meaning I would need to obtain the room number from reception in order to locate our room- this did not seem overly odd, or big a deal as you do expect there to be some miscommunication between nighttime and regular staff. I was advised by the night porter he was about to give his boss (I think the duty manager on that particular day) a call to assist him. When I returned from the balcony, having smoked a few cigarettes, to allow what I thought would be adequate time to solve the issue, the said managers is now present. I didn't exactly feel a very warm welcome as I approached the desk, and actually had to ask myself "so I take it you know what's going on?" To which he responded that he did, however there was no sign whatsoever of our booking either amongst the paper records, or on their systems. This continued for further 5+ minutes -after which, he called somebody above him presumably

Good but room for improvement

We had a lovely rime away but the hotel is in need of some updating, the floors were incredibly creaky and noisy, not ideal for a family stay with a baby. The breakfast was good. We were unfortunately disturbed at around 1am by the alarms going off which terrified our 3 month old.
