Nice Comfortable hotel
Everything was a nice order. Did not realize there was a gym in the hotel. Receptionist was helpful only problem was the reception was on the 4th floor rather than ground floor. Bed were comfortable and housekeepers were around to keep the rooms tidy

Terrible breakfast
Lovely Hotel, Great room, clean and tidy. Everything was good except Breakfast which was awful. Nothing left and had to wait for something to appear all at different times. So had half breakfast warm and to go back for the other half later. Fruit juices run out, coffee machine broke, no sugar. It just went from bad to worse. The staff were very apologetic but you just got fed up keep asking for things. Gave up in the end

2 members of staff
Had to wait 10 minutes for the manager so we could check in, apparently there were only 2 people working and 1 of them was the manager.
This hotel was so much better when it was the Hampton ls.
Rooms very basic.
Cleaner knocked on the door around 10am wanting to clean.
