Went for a drink to find bars locally closed at 10pm. Parking information inaccurate and got over charged due to the member of staff messing up our parking ticket.

The showers never got properly hot. Not one of the staff ever asked whether things were okay. They were basically polite but nothing more. The hotel probably can’t help it but in the evenings that area is very sketchy.
