4/10 Fair

Disappointing service

"Great" surprise upon arrival on a chilly winter evening - no hot water. After calling the reception on our mobile the night manager seemed very surprised and promised to take action. No call back, no feedback, no apologies at checkout in the morning. The hot water eventually came back in the morning but we definitely won't be back.

A convenient and comfortable place, warm and cosy rooms. Only one problem- big hard uncomfortable pillows! A softer option would have made it perfect.
