Breakfast

Arrived late due to cancelled train someone was there to greet us who was cery pleasent and gave a piece of paper with the wifi on it however we never read it and did see that breakfast was served between 8 and 9 we arrived downstairs at 9.05 ro ve told breakfast was finished i argued the fact it was only 5 mins late after the kitchen staff shouting behind closed doors breakfast is 8 to 9 he came out with 2 eggs and a sausage we ate and left i felt the meet and greet should have specified the breakfast times as we were not the only ones who was going to miss out after paying for breakfast

I do not recommend this hotel. I had to pay on arrival as a damage deposit, following checkout i was told that the deposit had been released and I would receive it within 2 days. After a week I have not received the money back and have been charged a further fee of which I have not been told why. A further identical fee was pending in my bank account following this initial unauthorised transaction, when I tried to contact them, the phone number on the website is not theirs and I haven’t been able to reach them. Do not recommend, as they have scammed me!!!
