clean room delicious meal helpful staff no sky sports drunken guests poor service
The room I got was so lovely and clean. The evening meal I ate was delicious I enjoyed it so much. The staffs was very polite and very helpful with any queries I had!
The reception told me that Sky Sports would show football in the bar. When I arrive there, they do not have Sky Sports. I was ruined our plans, this is so sad. I experienced disturbances in the corridor during the night from other guests and drunk. I complained at reception and just got a sorry. It not good enough!
