we enjoyed meals from the menu. there was an excellent choice, the size of the meals ample and beautifully cooked. service from ALL staff members was fantastic too. i will return and would recommend it.
the shower WAS broken SO i had no hot water, although the hot water tap in the bath worked. when explaining this, they were defensive rather than apologetic.

Not as Good as Hoped
broken showerunconcerned staff
The shower in my room was broken. There was no hot water. I told the staff about this, but they did not seem very concerned. They mentioned that no one else had complained. I discovered an extra charge on my bill. It was someone else's bar tab. I found these issues quite disappointing.

The room was fairly clean, and I found everything necessary, except for a light sheet. The duvet made the room quite warm and seemed a bit excessive, especially for warmer evenings.
