Don’t expect breakfast as advertised
Pros:

Room ok. Evening food good. However their literature stating breakfast until 10.00 is inaccurate. Arrived at 9.05 to be told breakfast had finished. Despite being only 5 minutes past their shut off time and being shown that they are advertising breakfast til 10.00 was offered what was left of continental options only. In response to complaint I was told “ ok, I’ll tell them”
