This is our second visit and now likely to be our last. We checked in and we're allocated our preferred room. On arrival the air con wasn't working so went back to reception and asked for assistance. The receptionist said he'd ring the engineer.
It was only that I went back to reception 3 hours later to ask again that I got an update.
No it's been broken for a few days and needs an electrician. The receptionist said he wasn't aware it was broken. Offered a fan (there was already one in the room).
It just felt no one really cared and a shrug of the shoulders and move on.
The kettle on the room can't be filled from the tap as it's too big. The safe didn't work.
There is no bedside light for one of the twin beds, but there is a plug socket to put one in.
The service in the restaurant is so slow. No proactive thinking about cutlery. No lime and soda available and we said we'd think about ordering something else but waitress never asked again. Water jug leaks all over the table when you pour. Never asked how food was.
Food itself was good both for dinner and breakfast. Beds and bedding are comfortable and good quality.
Honestly we paid £125 for B&B and it's not worth the money. It needs a serious shift in service for me to return (unless there's no other option) next time we visit the hospital.
And service is all about the leadership - there was definitely a lack of visibility on that front last night.
I've already cancelled the next stay in September.
