"We have stayed here several times and have always found it far better than its price might suggest. This time we were disappointed that there was no wi-fi in the room, not a problem we have had before. Hotels.com say all rooms have wi-fi with some in public areas but staff told us it is the other way round. Presumably we were just lucky the other times, but this is a big let-down"
