Acceptable Room, Issues with Service
themed decorationslow staffunpleasant food
The room's decoration was themed, and the beer selection was quite good.
The staff seemed slow. The breakfast I had was unpleasant. My poached eggs on toast tasted strongly of vinegar and I couldn't eat it. I found someone who may have been a manager sitting at the bar drinking when she told us they were closed, that was annoying.
