Payed for parking with no guarantee of a space. Extractor fan in bathroom not working (should be checked before room is booked out). Breakfast on first day you dont do fried eggs. Second breakfast had to wait 5 mjnuets for poached egg and when it arrived there was three eggs also sausage and bacon over cooked as for your rating of four stars i would say thats a joke. Also looked like ther was not enough staff to cover the desk and breakfast. WILL NOT STAY OR RECOMEND THIS HOTEL. Would rather go to Premier inn
