Doesn’t live up to its looks
Pros:

Comfy bed, we did sleep well. Local amenities within walking distance. Very quiet area.

Cons:

Breakfast was poor. Hot food was cold. Lacking quantities of most things.

No hairdryer in room which we expect in a hotel.

Kettle provided but no tea, coffee, cups etc so a kettle is pointless.

The hotel looks lovely from the outside and in the entrance but it fails miserably to provide a good service.

Pros:

Kan ikke komme på noe spes.

Cons:

personal som var på jobb på kvelden, manglet Opplæring både i jobb, og kundehåndtering.
Etter mange timer i bil, hadde vi gledet oss til å slappe av og spise på hotellet. Vi bestilte 3 irish, etter 1 t. Og 20 min. Hadde vi fortsatt ikke fått de.... etter elendig service, forlot vi hotellet for å spise ett annet sted.

Pros:

Var der bare ei natt, og sov og spiste frokost.

Cons:

Ikke noe såpe på badet, ikke noe dorullholder, måtte reise seg for å hente dorull på speilhylla. Treg krane som man måtte bruke litt kraft på for å åpne.
