Pros:

The team were all very welcoming, helpful and efficient.
The breakfast was very good, perfectly cooked and piping hot.
The location was perfect for the Care Home I was visiting.

Cons:

The room 209 was a little shabby, cracks in the walls, the bathroom was clean but rundown. The beds were a little soft for us and the carpet was new.

Potrebbero migliorare anche se è un pò trascurato
Pros:

La posizione è ottimale. Fermata del bus adiacente all'hotel.

Cons:

Dotare le collaboratrici di appositi carrelli per il trasporto della biancheria e effetti bagno evitando di vederli appoggiati per terra. Un pò di buon senso.
