No hot water in my room evening or no hot shower but was ok in the morning. Also when booking says parking available but only get a email saying it’s £20 to park on site and no option to cancel the hotel and move to another with parking included and because of this I won’t stay there again

All the staff we met did their best to be helpful. The £20 car park was not fit for purpose: I had to be guided to park between pillars that were so close that then I could not open all the car doors. The room was supposed to be wheelchair accessible, but there was a step and a very stiff door into it, and there was no hand rail by the WC. The choice at breakfast was very limited; the orange juice was very watery; there was an extra charge of £3.50 for hot chocolate on top of the £16.50 charge for breakfast, which had no reduction for those that did not want a cooked breakfast. Our cooked breakfast took so long to arrive that we were refunded the charge for breakfast! The computer at Reception was very slow.
