bucht ohne frühstück
Pros:

Die Lage war super für Harry Potter Studios

Cons:

Das Frühstück war ne Katastrophe. Vor allem die warmen Säfte und das harte Rührei. Abgerundet wurde das ganze durch dreckige Löffel und eine für den preis viel zu geringe Auswahl

Great stay!
Pros:

Great location, staff very friendly, hotel and room lovely and clean, beds and pillows were so comfy! Location was right near the train station which even with the noise of the trains, wasn't that loud and didn't affect our stay and also close to the big shopping centre and Harry Potter Experience. Breakfast was serve yourself and had choice of hot or cold food, cooked breakfast was very tasty, also paid for tea there one evening and although a little pricey, it was really nice. We would definitely stay here again, we had a great couple of days.

Cons:

Nothing
