Great clean property walking distance to great pub with good meals just down the road. Room service dessert and room service staff were lovely. Breakfast in the restaurant was delicious. Reception staff and waitresses in the restaurant were polite. Manager in the restaurant was not very cheerful and came across as quite rude.
