Stopover going home from holiday
The room and the bathroom was clean, but the room looked tired and in general could do with a few refurbs e.g. the handle and lock on the bathroom door, room 307.
Staff were courteous and helpful. food was also good considering the number of guests on a bus tour.

Staff were pleasant but dining and bar areas were horribly understaffed, especially in view of presence of a large tour coach group and a small coach group. Odd policy that drinks and meals had to be paid separately so credit card had to be processed multiple times for one meal.
