Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
They didn’t service our room on one day and we had to ask for towels to be bought up and had to wait for these to arrive before we could go to sleep. When we said our room had not been serviced they asked if we had put a sign in the door and didn’t offer any assistance. No tea bags were there from day one. Chunk of hair in shower floor.

I have stayed here a few times and have normally loved it. Not sure if they have had a change of staff but their service was really poor. Front desk staff were really not friendly. House keeping didn’t clean our room, they just pulled out bedding up and took our towels and left us with none. Had to go to the front desk to get more as they would not bring us up any. There was one guy collecting dishes from the breakfast who was very nice.
