The room felt way too small for two people. I struggled to move around. the breakfast arrangement bothered me. The food came in a basket, kind of like a picnic. I wanted a proper restaurant breakfast.

breakfast hamper sweet treats chocolate bars
The breakfast was served in a hamper to the room, it was a nice experience. The hotel provided ample tea, milk, and coffee. free sweet treats (I liked that!). A tuck shop sold items for £1, including San Pellegrino and full-size chocolate bars.
The room was located on the second floor, and the stairs were fairly narrow when carrying heavy luggage.
