Complaint!
I have infact stay at this hotel before when communities with no compaints at all therefore recommended myself and family stay here for 1 night while away on a Christmas shopping trip. I did receive an email prior to this stating there would be an event happening on the same evening, see below: We'd like to inform you that there will be an event at our hotel during the dates of your reservation. Rest assured, we are fully committed to ensuring your comfort and convenience throughout your stay. Please be aware that due to the event, there may be limited availability of bar food at certain times; however, this will not affect breakfast service. No where was it mentioned/pre warned that we would be put in room 205 (directly above the function room) and that loud music would continue till 1am!!!!! If I had known this I would never have book to stay this night. The following morning at breakfast we were seated at a table with slippery oil underneath and the waitress spilt milk all over table and chair (which is a simple accident no harm done) but then walked off and didn’t attempt to clean it up at all!! Will not recommend or ever stay here again

Property very clean but needs updating as the family room we had definitely needed new beds. When in the bed mattress was so soft that it wasn’t straight and you felt like you were rolling out of bed due to people sitting on the edge over years. The single beds were so light that they moved across the room but also had very soft mattress and one had a great dip in the middle.
