The staff was friendly and helpful. (That's a plus!).

Upon check-in, I was surprised by the £60 deposit requirement. I will receive it after 20 days from checkout. This seems unreasonable.

i stayed there for a few nights this year. the location was good. breakfast offered many options. the staff was friendly and helpful . the hotel had a contemporary design and was well-kept. the room was clean and had all the necessary amenities. i found the bed to be very comfortable for sleep. i liked the shower had good pressure.

the water pressure in the sink was a little weak. i noticed this especially when i tried to wash my hands quickly. this made routine tasks take a bit longer. i wish the pressure was stronger.
