a standard stay
quick check-in generous minibar helpful reception poor signage overpriced breakfast difficult entrance
check-in was quick. my room had a generous minibar. reception was helpful when i lost my key (which i always seem to do).
i found the entrance difficult to locate from the train station. signage was lacking and i wasn't sure where to go. breakfast felt overpriced. grabbing food from the onsite restaurant seemed a better deal.

lovely balcony friendly staff unsafe driveway missing bath salts
the room was spacious and offered a lovely balcony. i found the breakfast buffet had great variety with genuinely friendly staff. i appreciated the convenience this brought to our mornings.
Parking on site proved to be a bit of a challenge. the driveway area felt unsafe, especially when trying to manage luggage and a busy car park. i also noticed no bath salts were provided. Only plain water was available to fill the tub.
