Firstly the good points 1. The bed was comfortable and the hotel was quite clean. 2. The breakfast the morning after we arrived was actually quite good and enjoyable, the chef seemed quite good and the restaurant staff ( 1 lady) ,was quite pleasant. 3 The Sticky Toffee pudding and custard was quite nice. Now the bad points. 1. The staff did not seem particularly interested whether you were there or not 2. The restaurant staff did NOT appear to know how to run a restaurant, the chef appeared disinterested and the staff followed suit 3, The food at best was mediocre 4. We waited 35 mins for our order to be taken and a further 40 mins for it to be delivered, even then a portion of Onion Rings which we ordered as a side dish only appeared 5 mins after we had finished our meal 5. The next evening ( we needed to stay 2 nights due to circumstances beyond our control ) the food was just as average as the night before and the wait times, if anything, were even longer than the night before. 6. On both evenings there were many tables that had not been cleared of used crockery and leftover food 7. Our second breakfast was a complete contrast to the first. Again the chef (different to the previous morning) was very laid back and seemed disinterested, The fried eggs were like rubber and when we requested a freshly fried egg, when it eventually appeared it was only half cooked. It always seemed that there were not enough staff. In the evenings when we were there 3 staff appeared to be required to staff the check-in, the bar and the restaurant and there were several people at each point ie check-in, bar and restaurant. If I never stay here again (and I wont) it will be too soon Also while we were having our breakfast on the second day a gentleman was complaining that he had enquired before leaving home if a room was available for him and his family and was told that there was. He told me that he duly travelled to this hotel only to be told on arrival that they DID NOT have a room for him and would just refund him. He had travelled from Newcastle
