An expensive trip!
The price for one night was eye wateringly expensive - more than the pensioners annual heating allowance - they wanted half again to check in 2 hours early! I have never before been hassled at 8:30 on Sunday morning to be asked by housekeeping when we were leaving!

Amazing
Kayleigh was super super helpful from the second we checked in. Nothing was too much hassle for her and answered all the questions we had. Very friendly service by Kayleigh. Room was a lot bigger than originally, more like a queen room rather than standard double. Very spacious.
