Stayed here for 4 nights, 9th - 12th July 2006.
Arrived early, around 11am so we did not expect to be able to check in (check in is at 3pm), but luckily there was a room ready! I had booked a family room for a wee bit more room. The room was fine for us, a few niggles but nothing major...
After reading reviews I called ahead and requested a quiet room at the back of the hotel and on one of the upper non smoking floors. (Floors 1-3 are non smoking and 4-5 smoking). The receptionist was helpful when I called and the room request was given when we arrived.
Check in was quick and the staff courteous. The bar/eating area was packed though with people getting breakfast.
We went up to the room and were pleasantly surprised. It was quite large, comfortable King size bed with a duvet. Separate sofa bed which was quite large and looked like it folded out. TV (channels 1-5 & pay per view movies), tea/coffee making facilities (refilled daily).
Bathroom was basic, but perfectly adequate. Only niggle in the bathroom, was that the lever for switching from shower to bath was broke so water squirted up from the lever when you were getting a shower but in all honesty it was no major problem. (we have reported it though)
Only other niggle in the room was the peephole on our door was missing and covered over with Duck tape.
We only ate breakfast on one morning in the hotel, as we were up early to catch a train. It was
