I cannot fault the staff at breakfast, they were attentive & breakfast was good. However the rooms are dated, bits on my floor. Unfortunately my daughter’s room had a wet bathroom floor, leaky shower & there were skid marks in the toilet. Cleanliness needs to be looked at & this could be a nice place to stay as located in a lovely area.
