Nice enough room but bad breakfast experience
Pros:

Nice room with very comfortable bed. Bathroom could have been cleaner. The young woman at check-in was very nice.

Cons:

Breakfast. As a female traveller you always feel a bit awkward arriving at breakfast in a small hotel. No staff around so just sat at a small table. A woman came bustling out of the kitchen and told me I was at the "wrong' table and made me move to an identical one next along. She seemed irritated that I had taken it upon myself to sit down but there wss no "please wait to be seated sign' so I decided to sit (wrong decision apparently!) The only difference was that this other one was set up with cup and plate. These must have been glued to the table as if I were serving I would have swapped them over in a second. When I perused the cooked breakfast menu and saw no vegan option marked I decided toast would be a good option but upon enquiring if vegan spread was available the waitress looked positively offended and gave a curt response of 'no' as if I was asking for something outrageous. All the other customers stared at me too. Made do with fruit salad and cereal from the buffet (soya milk was grudgingly provided but was weirdly warm).
