decent stay

fresh milknice accommodationdifferent roommissing view
we liked having fresh milk and water in the fridge daily. The accommodation was VERY nice and well appointed. Breakfast was plentiful. The hotel is perfectly situated in a lovely area overlooking the bowling green.
we booked a room WITH views of the estuary. WE were given a different room with NO view. This was frustrating as the view was a PRIMARY reason for selecting this place.

day-old pastriespoor soundproofing
Honestly, i thought the 'breakfast included' thing was a bit of a ruse. The spread was okay, i guess, but nothing special. the pastries seemed day-old. and the coffee? tasted like it was brewed sometime last week. also, the soundproofing in the room left a lot to be desired. I could hear every conversation from the hallway.
