I chose an expensive room with a sea view. Great size, large shower room. Fabulous view. The decor was very attractive and it seemed to have been recently renovated. Slight criticism of the layout - the mirror near to the plug was not set up with a seat nearby. It was easy to move the chair which was placed by the desk to where I needed it but…
Check-in was easy and staff were very helpful. The reception area looks freshly decorated. Go beyond the main area (ie to the basement toilets, or towards the mess bedrooms & carpark, it’s a different story, and the lifts need a spruce up.
Breakfast is more than adequate, if a little pricey for the choices. The orange juice was certainly good, and there was a few other flavours. Slices of watermelon & melon, apples & pears, yoghurts, 3 different cold meats & basic cheese. The bacon, sausages, black pudding & potato cakes (I’ve forgotten the right name) were very good, as were the fried eggs.
Towels were changed during our stay, and the coffee/tea & biscuits were refilled. One day, however, the room still hadn’t been serviced at 5pm, and we had to call for it to be done. No cleaning was done during the 3 day break, and the covers on the bed were simply pulled up, no attempt to place pillows neatly or arrange the cushions on the bed.
Very small carpark which was quite tight to park in, and cost £28 per night.
