Probably won’t return as felt they could have at least tried to amend the situation

Liked:Great staff and clean hotel

Disliked:Tv wasn’t working and was told they couldn’t fix it until tomorrow and as this was a one night stay not much help. £250 a night thought it would have been a little better service for the money
