frayed curtainslifting floor
The beer I had ordered for my husband was not in the room upon arrival. It looked later, outside our door with the luggage, completely ruining the surprise. the room seemed dated and did not reflect the high price I paid. I noticed frayed curtains and the bathroom floor looked to be lifting. These issues are not acceptable.

Solid Stay, Minor Hiccup

attentive staffgenerous breakfaston-site parking
staff were attentive during breakfast. The full cumbrian was recommendable and generous. My room was cleaned well each day, including the bathroom. It was Nice to have on-site parking, made exploring the area easier.
The shower had inconsistent pressure. Hot water was intermittent, switching from good to poor unexpectedly.

The beer bucket I ordered for my husband was not in the room, as requested. Staff placed it outside our door later with the rest of our bags, but the surprise was ruined and I felt really disappointed. The room was expensive for its quality based on the pictures and description I saw (it felt basic).
