fantastic heritage stay
smooth check-in wonderful breakfast calm ambiance
I was grateful for the smooth check-in process, thanks to the helpful staff. the food was a real highlight. I particularly enjoyed the wonderful breakfast spread. the heritage wing was a treat. My room had a great ambiance and was very calm.
I did experience a slight delay in receiving a hot water bottle one evening. It took a couple of phone calls and over an hour for it to arrive. this was after asking about some medicine for my daughter, where i was told to buy from outside instead of receiving some assistance.
