The breakfast offered diverse options, including gluten-free bread. The gym had ample equipment. I saw three treadmills and two stationary bikes. The staff at reception were efficient. They promptly addressed my queries.
The WiFi signal was quite weak in my room. It disconnected frequently, frustrating. The walls seemed thin. I could hear conversations from the adjacent room. There was no blackout blind and the sun woke me up too early.

The breakfast sausages used local ingredients and tasted amazing. A good selection of fruits, cereals, cooked breakfast, and toast was available. The restaurant food tasted quite good too.
I paid £15 extra per dog per night for a dog-friendly room with a kitchenette. It seemed the housekeeping staff only emptied the bin once. No cleaning equipment was available , so dog hair remained on the carpet.
