Pros:

Overall we enjoyed our stay.
The staff were very helpful the hotel was spotless.

Cons:

Being woken to the sound of cow bells screaming and shouting as nobody mentioned the race for life which we are not against.
The breakfast was awful it was cold lacking in taste hash browns were like rubber and the toaster failed to toast the bread both sides so it was out in again and burnt one side.
We checked out and had breakfast elsewhere.
