Negative Reviews
negative:
Availability of evening meals
Guests tend to comment favourably about the standard of dining at this hotel. However, potential guests should note that evening meals (and packed lunches) need to be pre-booked. Those guests who arrived in the afternoon unaware of the requirement to pre-book were left disappointed.
negative:
Mixed feedback about rooms
Feedback about the quality of the rooms is a little mixed. Some guests thought they were acceptable for the price but others found them too basic, along with reporting disappointment with the standard of housekeeping and cleanliness.
negative:
Wi-Fi coverage
Guests mention that the Wi-Fi service is only reliable in the public areas and inaccessible in the individual bedrooms. In this day and age, guests are naturally of the opinion that Wi-Fi coverage could be better.
