Hotel mix up
Pros:

After a mix up with another hotel I went to see if they had a spare twin room for my mother and I and the lady went above and beyond to help us . The room was comfy and the food was absolutely delicious. Everyone was so kind too .

Cons:

The water tap wouldn't turn to cold and the water took a eternity to drain in the sink. There was a strange dripping noise all night in the room which was really annoying.
