Acceptable stay with a few issues

high pricesdim lighting
I found the bar prices a little ridiculous. A diet coke costing over £4 seemed EXCESSIVE. The family room felt cramped because of the sofa bed, leaving little room to move. The lighting was dim, and the mirror light didn't work.

Check-in was smooth. Dawn was pleasant. She gave information about local restaurants with discounts for hotel guests. The location is ideal for going out.
I expect the AC to function in the summer. The room was warm, and the AC did not work. I also had to pay extra for parking.
