Convenient but overpriced - some decor investment and management attention required
Pros:

Comfortable bed

Cons:

Food not the best and very expensive. Decor is tired and there is a lack of attention to detail when it comes to cleaning.

Pros:

Evening meal very good.Room comfortable.Evening staff very good.

Cons:

The breakfast on the first day was very good.We waited over half an hour and was finally told our order had been given to other residents.When it did arrive it was cold and overcooked.The coffee was cold.We were very disappointed having had a nice meal the night before. The second day breakfast was better but the morning shift staff are much poorer than the evening team.I suggest it's an issue the company needs to address.

Pros:

Mooi hotel restaurant midden in woodstock met mooi aangeklede kamers met veel ruimte. Restaurant en ontbijt waren prima.

Cons:

De kamer was wel erg fris en moeilijk warm te krijgen. Het bed was erg hard en helaas geen echte king, maar 2 enkele matrassen.
