"This is a lovely hotel with large spacious rooms. They are quite dark and could do with better lighting. Staff are friendly and helpful. I reduced my star rating due to the bombardment of emails and messages received from this hotel before arrival. We were staying for one night and leaving at 4.40am for the airport. On the first email asking for more details from me and then trying to upsell their services, I did reply to say the circumstances of our stay meant we would not require anything extra including breakfast. The computer then generated another email every day for 18 days asking the exact same thing. Did not make me feel a valued customer, more like a target for sales. I would not return for this reason only."
