missing bath loud floorboards
The breakfast was good, with a huge choice of continental items. A selection of cheeses and meats was also available.
The room I had only included a shower. The advertised room specified a bath, however. Certain areas needed some updating, especially the bathroom finish and tiles. I found the floorboards in the room upstairs to be very loud.

Underwhelming stay. Some issues noted
broken thermostat cold water
The room was clean and tidy. I appreciated that.
I found the shower thermostat broken. I could only choose between freezing cold or scalding hot water. I needed to wash my daughter, but it was not possible to use the bath. I spoke to reception and was told maintenance would look into it that day, but it was not fixed.
