Not Great

Started well, receptionist very helpful, and free parking if you can find a space (we did). Room small but OK, clean enough. But two things let it down. The noise from people walking through the courtyard in the evening was unbearable. We were expecting a bit of noise, and were out quite late ourselves, but there was shouting and chanting etc until the small hours. The room was very hot so we had to choose noise over heat and keep the window open (no aircon). The breakfast was very poor, I love a full English, and this was the first time I've ever left one. The service was non existent, no cold water, no hot water, no tea bags. And not just us, others were sending things back to be cooked or changed
