efficient check-out room description admirable selection shower drainage reception unavailability waiting minutes
The room was precisely as described. A Standard Double Room Hot was allocated. Check-in and check-out were straightforward and efficient. I found the breakfast selection admirable..
I noticed the shower drainage needed some attention. The water pooled slightly during use. Staff were unavailable at reception during my check-out process. I waited a few minutes.

i found ample parking upon arrival. the room featured a large tv, tea, and coffee facilities. i appreciated the comfortable bed that gave me a restful night (i really needed it!).
i found a notable stain on the carpet near the seating area. there was also a blood stain on top of the duvet, it wasn't pleasant. these issues should be addressed immediately.

easy check in comfortable bed ample parking cold room tired bathroom heating issue
the check in process was fast and easy i found the person who assisted us to be very polite. the bed was probably the most comfortable i've ever slept in. there was a lot of parking available too. it was very convenient
the room felt cold as soon as i walked in the bathroom looked tired and grubby with old stains in the sink. there was no direct heating in the room so i felt uncomfortable. the corridor was actually warmer than the room itself which i found odd
