    Overall, the stay was great. Staff are all lovely (although there was what appeared to be a new waiter who was fumbling when i asked for an orange juice and lemonade). Rooms are very dated and in need of a refresh, but perfectly pleasant and comfy...

    room: large enough, two seats, but would prefer a walk in shower. the tub was too high, not easy to get in and out of! breakfast: b+ for self serve. Dinner: would have preferred more options/variety.
