A Relaxed Stay

helpful staffprivate patiomobility issuesbroken heating

The staff was polite and helpful. Young employees were happy to have friendly conversations with us. We had a Ground Floor Superior Twin Family Room (it suited our needs very well) that had 2 Queen size beds and patio doors to a private patio. We enjoyed sitting outside until midnight.

I emailed the hotel twice asking for adjacent rooms with my friend, as we both have mobility issues. Upon arrival, I was told this wasn't possible. We were allocated rooms in different wings on different floors. The heating in my room turned itself off after 5 minutes, so I kept turning it back on manually.
