My compact double room was very comfortable. I struggled to work the shower attachment so maybe instructions would be a good idea. Lots of lovely hot water for a bath and nice fluffy towels. Service for our Sunday dinner was achingly slow, the food was worth the wait, staff stood around chatting when our water needed refilling, first time ever no bread was served with my otherwise delicious Prawn Cocktail. A little more care and attention from waitress would have been appreciated for example no offer of Condiments with my Pork or my sons Beef, the meal was a rare treat for us and it would have been nice to have received a 4 star service.
