Balanced experience at the hotel

easy parking awesome breakfast expensive cost late access
The location was near Cheltenham. Parking was easy. Breakfast provided a fantastic start to the day. I especially enjoyed my evening meal at the Horsebox.
The cost felt very expensive for the value received. Access to my room wasn't available until after 3pm. I understand this is standard policy, but it was inconvenient. I found the prosecco prices to be excessive.
