Breakfast included a fresh English breakfast and various options. Dinner offered a great variety, and meals were well presented. Room 6 had a decent-sized TV and bed. Food and service in the restaurant were excellent.
The shower bathroom was soaked. Plaster came from a hole in the ceiling.

the dinner tasted freshly cooked.
i had booked a standard double room but it felt small. the room was too hot when i arrived and the provided fan did little to alleviate the heat. i asked for iced water at the bar and the service felt begrudging.
