Good Hotel!

Everything about this hotel was good, it was extremely clean, the bed was large, it had some nice design features in the room, it was close to a big supermarket which is handy, breakfast was included and nicely cooked, the shower was large, rooms had an ironing board and iron. A few minor negatives were that the breakfast room didn't have the large range of food I have found in some other Holiday Inn Express hotels, especially for cereals, fruit toppings, yogurts, cakes and pastries. Bottles of Ketchup and brown sauces were limited and hard to get hold of, small sachets or pump with cardboard cups (like McDonald's have) would be a better idea. Mayonnaise was left in bottles on the counter 24/7 which should be refrigerated after opening. The breakfast room filled up very quickly indicating that the room is a little small for the amount of rooms. Some of the doors in the corridors were very noisy with a loud bang when closing. Apart from that all good!
