The location is great with a nice view overlooking the water. I find the staff to be helpful, and the service in the restaurant was prompt. The restaurant were busy, but that not affected service.
The room are far too hot and the window only opened a few inches. This was uncomfortable even with the small fan that work all night. Our room are near the traffic and train line and it are very noisy.

carvery valuevegetable choicebreakfast selectionsafety measure
I enjoyed the carvery on Thursday. It offered great value with choices like beef and turkey. Roast potatoes and vegetables were plentiful. Breakfast was also a buffet, a VERY good one, I must say, offering sausages, bacon, hash browns, and pastries.
The shower lacked a grab rail and an anti-slip mat, safety measures that would be beneficial.
