Having to wait 20 minutes for a cup to have a hot drink in and didn’t end up getting one . How does a hotel run out of cups ?

Excellent large hotel, good facilities easy parking and well worth a visit
Pros:

Very nice hotel with very good facilities and a nice modern public facing bar, restaurant etc

Cons:

My room was very large and specious and although perhaps a little dated it was very clean and tidy and the bed excellent. What let it down was a broken toilet roll showing poor maintenance and a shower head from the 80’s which didn’t flow correctly and sprayed water in every direction but you could get a shower, the bathroom was generally very good and clean, plenty of towels, so all in all quite decent. Just those 2 things let it down
Great staff too!
