Alison, Jan 2020
Pros (+) The room was very comfortable and I liked that you didn’t have to wait to be seated at breakfast
Cons (-) There could have been brighter lights in the room, we found it a bit dim. Also I thought there would have been more vegetarian items in the hot breakfast section (mushrooms and tomatoes). I was surprised there weren’t any tomatoes bearing in mind all the ‘five a day’ health advertising there is these days
