Comfortable with issues

Much better than I was expecting. The room I was in was modern, clean and comfortable. Staff very friendly. The room was also well supplied with tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits. Only downsides were 1) there is a ridiculously bright green emergency exit light in the room (for which they furnish eye masks) and 2) the walls are pretty thin and I was serenaded by snoring in the next room (for which they furnish ear plugs). The latter two issues do not make for the restful night's sleep one wants in a hotel so would love to rate the establishment more highly but these detract from the experience.

Lovely room, but eat and drink? Not so good.

The room was absolutely fine, up-to-date and comfortably equipped. During a heatwave, it was a real pleasure to be able to get the room to a comfortable temperature. BUT the tv wouldn't work, at all. A trendy, new "smart" set which said simply, for 3 days, "No signal". Unacceptable. Food: pleasant enough but unexceptional. The big problem in the restaurant/bar was that there simply weren't enough staff. Those we encountered we all lovely, helpful and efficient, but they were being asked to do far too much and the results were delays, long waits etc. Not so good.

You will not be afraid of the dark

Arrived to be faced with check in on a computer. Since the stay was booked through hotels.com for some reason all the addresses and contacts information was for hotels.Com. When I tried to update my contact info the system through me out. Twice. Luckily one of the barmaids helped me out and gave me a room key. The room was a newly refurbished one on the ground floor. Unfortunately the room had emergency lighting that had a bright LED shining all night and was not conducive to sleep. After a sleepless night we complained to the front desk which was now manned and got moved to an older room. No emergency lights and a good nights sleep was achieved. The staff were very helpful and pleasant throughout our stay. Breakfast was very good but we did not eat in the evening.
