friendly staffquick checkbreakfast choicestifling roomnoisy guestsrestaurant noise
the staff was friendly. check in was quick. i paid a reduced parking fee of £3.50 for 24 hours and used the machine inside. the cooked breakfast included plenty of choices.
my room was stifling. other guests were noisy past midnight. my room was above the restaurant so i heard tables and chairs being moved until midnight. it was difficult when i had an early flight.

fantastic stay before flight

friendly staffclean hotelgood quality foodcold radiator
the staff were fantastic and friendly. the hotel was spotlessly clean everywhere i looked. i found the food for the evening meal and breakfast to be of really good quality and i enjoyed both meals. the shower was powerful and offered plenty of hot water
the room radiator wasn't working it remained a cold ornament throughout my stay i had hoped for a warmer room. reception suggested i turn it on but it had already been tried before. they also suggested i wait a while for the heat to come through
