An expensive trip!
The price for one night was eye wateringly expensive - more than the pensioners annual heating allowance - they wanted half again to check in 2 hours early! I have never before been hassled at 8:30 on Sunday morning to be asked by housekeeping when we were leaving!

Expected more but okay stay
Staff were lovely at the hotel. Only 1 lift working, despite having 3 - long waits to use lift. Poor signage on the stairs leading to both reception and car park (very confusing)
