Just about adequate, but not what we expected,
Pros:

Good quality bedding, and a comfortable bed,

Cons:

No breakfast available. Dirty bathroom. Previous users items in a drawer. Bedside lamp cable didn’t reach a socket ( but staff provided an extension lead when asked). Evening menu basically “ frozen and fried”. Room not serviced on second day.

Comfortable enough stay but the lack of any breakfasting facilities was extremely disappointing!
Pros:

The staff were friendly and the location was great for my needs.

Cons:

NO BREAKFAST AVAILABLE!
Booking.com should only offer up accommodation that can provide a breakfast for travellers. This venue can offer lunch and evening meals but not breakfast! A breakfast is probably the most important meal if the day so why not offer it? This has put me off from EVER booking this accommodation again!
