Nice enough.
Pros:

Nice breakfast; sausages, bread and yogurt were particularly nice.Bar staff were very nice.

Cons:

One of the keys to room did not work. Payment terminal machine did not work when paying the bill. On both accounts no apologies were offered by staff when the problem occurred. It felt a little cavalier and not what you’d expect in a 4 star hotel.
