excellent location spacious room clean room unproactive staff gluten free options breakfast attempts
The room was spacious and very clean. The location was excellent and close to many amenities. I really enjoyed the riverside walks, so CLOSE to the river.
The staff at the pub were not proactive. The gluten free options were awful. Getting the breakfast correct took the staff three attempts. It was disappointing.

parking charge thin walls
the parking situation caused me some stress. i received a parking charge notice even after paying at the hotel. it took some effort to resolve the issue, a proper resolution and confirmation would have been greatly appreciated. the room felt a little dated. the walls seemed quite thin, as i could clearly hear conversations from the adjacent room. it made it difficult to relax at times.
