Pros:

Stay was great.
Food was ok

Cons:

Food was ok but personally my self id like the sausages and has browns cooked a lot more .
Eggs was really watery

No smart tv I messaged to see if we could watch Netflix Disney+ amazon ext and they assured me if I took my own device. We tried our xbox and it would not let us connect at all. So we had to watch normal TV. Other than that great night.

The hot breakfast is not for human consumption.
Pros:

Standard

Cons:

They advertised hit breakfast and most of the hot breakfast is under cooked. If they kitchen they can properly fry hash browns. I would request the GM to stand next to the hot breakfast counter in the morning and see for herself how many people dislike it but only few of them make efforts to complain. If you cannot make a proper breakfast just don't serve it at least people won't suffer from dangerous and bacteria. Will report it to Health and Safety.

Très bon séjour
Pros:

Personnel très sympathique et très serviable. Petit déjeuner très bon. Chambre bien équipée.

Cons:

La chambre donnait sur une soufflerie un peu gênante la nuit.
Manque de variété au petit déjeuner.
Améliorer un peu le nettoyage des toilettes (un peu salé au niveau des attaches de la lunette).
