Overall okay but let down by the room.
Pros:

Breakfast was fine on Saturday with a good choice all freshly cooked hot food as well as cereal and continental alternatives. Sunday was continental or cooked buffet. No alternatives to the 'full english'. Front of house staff were excellent with one exception. The restaurant dinner was plentiful, tasty and reasonably priced. Restaurant and bar taff were attentive, efficient and cheerful.

Cons:

On arrival the bathroom bin hadn't been emptied, the shower glass was all water marks, the mirror on the dressing table looked as if it had been cleaned with a floor cloth, the bed sheet was a 'top sheet' that was a foot too small for the mattress with the gap covered by pillows. There was no shower gel in the shower. No Tea bags either, All of these were reported to reception where the young lady made no notes but stated they would be rectified. Nothing changed apart from the bathroom bin was emptied. Mistakes happen but not to be corrected was poor.
