Negative Reviews
negative:
Breakfast lacks substance
A number of guests found the free continental breakfast lacking substance, commenting that it mainly consisted of cereals, fruit and mini-pastries and omitted bread, meat and cheese. It is possible to upgrade to a cooked breakfast at extra cost.
negative:
Parking may frustrate
Several guests found the parking situation a little frustrating. You'll need to find public parking and guests sometimes found that these spaces had a two-hour maximum stay.
negative:
Some rooms can be noisy
Rooms at the front of the hotel seem to be subject to a little traffic noise. Plus, guests enjoying a drink in the front garden can often be heard until late in the evening, although this will likely only be an issue in warmer weather.
