Charming Stay Near the Pavilion
convenient locationtasteful decorprivate bathroom
I found the location convenient for attending an event at the pavilion. The hotel decor was tasteful and the cleanliness was excellent (a very high standard!). I also appreciated the color-coordinated dressing gowns in my room to use with the private bathroom across the hall.
The parking situation was somewhat tight, with only 8 spaces available for 12 bedrooms.

mixed feelings about my stay
small roomabsent breakfast
i found the absence of breakfast quite inconvenient. i had anticipated this service and not having it available disrupted my morning routine. the room allocated to me was also a point of concern. it was smaller than expected and the bathroom being across the hall felt less private and slightly inconvenient, especially at night.

i ordered chocolate strawberries and cava. it was delivered to my room as a surprise. the location is near good pubs and places to eat. the bus stop to the train station is right outside the hotel.
the tv remote was very dirty. i had to guess which buttons would work. sometimes one button would change channels and volume, but other times another would work.
