Freezing room in poor state and crazy noisy
While a very friendly team, the room (junior suite) was shockingly bad and nothing like the photos. Despite calling early in the day to request heating be on, the room was freezing cold and the old radiators just were not enough so the room stayed freezing. The room was above an extremely noisy bar which to a certain extent is understandable but also next door to a function room meaning sleep was impossible and do did not stay the night and left that night. Main gripe is the room is nothing like advertised, freezing cold and reception was unable to change room due to being at capacity
