Bit of a con
When checked in I was told to pay £7 for car parking. On checking my statement the hotel took £50. When questioned they said this was to cover any additional items and would be refunded in 7 days. I wasn’t told this at check in nor did I get a receipt - my own fault. Be aware

Overall ok
I would recommend this hotel, there a few unwanted noises because of the plumbing either our bathroom or next doors, and some noisy kids slamming doors but that is just unfortunate for us. The room was lovely and clean, bed was bit hard and didn’t like the pillows but overall an alright place to rest your head. Reception staff but rude when we arrived but the lady that checked us out was lovely.

Objection to service charge
I stayed here as I was attending a wedding in St Albans and this was convenient to the reception. Checking in and out was easy, reception staff and restaurant staff were welcoming friendly and helpful, however I strongly object to being charged a service charge for every transaction at the bar. I don’t want to pay a service charge for a bar person pouring me a pint of beer or a glass of whiskey.I will pay a gratuity if I think it is deserved for the service I receive and I would not have known about this had I not asked for a receipt. I think this is scandalous and will be making others aware of this deceitful behaviour.
