Ambiance & Cleanliness

  • "Toilets were not that clean and carpets were threadbare where we were seated, which let it down a bit."
  • "Hipster guy with the long beard at reception was unfriendly and unwelcoming, didn't smile or welcome us."
  • "It was OK. Slow service and average food in a COLD environment meant I was pleased to leave as soon as we had finished eating."

  • "The carpet needs to be replaced as I almost tripped up on it as it's ripped."
