Fabulous Weekend Getaway!

great valueexcellent foodcomfortable bedcold room

I experienced great value for money with the weekend budget deal. It covered dinner, bed, breakfast, some free drinks, and a packed lunch. The food was excellent with hot, fresh, and very well-cooked dishes. Majid organized everyone with patience, and Lena at reception gave a warm welcome, charmed I was. The black out curtains and extra large super comfy bed gave me a great night's sleep.

The first room was noisy though. I moved to another room upon request. The room was icy cold, it wasn't nice!

poor receptioninconsistent temperature

The tv in the room had poor reception. It cut out endlessly. no sockets were near the bed. It made charging phones inconvenient. the shower's water temperature wasn't consistent. It alternated from hot to cold numerous times. waited 10+ minutes before someone came to reception! poor service overall.
