i found the breakfast quite good with many choices available. the fry up had lovely elements and continental choices were also present. i found picking up a taxi to collect a rental car was easy using the reception phone.
i found a cold air draft coming from an unsealed building gap under the outside window. the air conditioner did not produce any hot or warm air. the bar had run out of blackcurrant cordial.
