Room 9 was lovely....large with a fabulous en-suite. Very clean, but so hot and no fan was provided and could not open the other window. Noisy, as room was facing a busy road. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was disappointing, however, that might be my fault. I just assumed it meant the breakfast would be cooked when it said 'breakfast included ', but it was just continental. But on the whole, we did enjoy our stay.
