On arrival I noticed a board telling me there was no food available due to staff shortages, I had been working all day and was hungry. The receptionist was polite and helpful and gave me a list of local places for food. The room was clean and tidy, but there was a long blond hair in the sink. The Television wouldn't switch off, so I went reception and got the batteries change in the remote. In the night I could hear a dog barking, and then realised it was a dog in another room. I have dogs of my own, but I don't consider it nice to have them in a hotel like this one. The water took ages to get hot for a bath/shower.
