My stay was reasonably good
Pros:

Location, Friendly staff

Cons:

My bed seem to have a dip on one side ?
I thought Breakfast could have been better, like the bacon was overcooked, sausages were a little undercooked, I also thought the selections could have been better.
One suggestion is to stick to in season fruit.

Great location, clean and comfortable room. Just check before paying extra for the corner suite if you will actually hav
Pros:

Great location, well presented, clean and comfortable bed, bathroom.

Cons:

View from 12th floor corner room was not like image on booking.com with the church, our room overlooked a flood lit tennis court and grubby backsides of buildings so needed our block out curtains pulled most of stay.
TV was also mounted on a side wall of bedroom so once we worked out the tv could be extended out from wall and repositioned it was better, lucky we weren’t staying or needing it for a long time.
We also did the online check in as suggested by the hotel via email, but on arrival was told by staff we needed to talk to them anyway.
