I had a rear room with no outlook and a frosted window (but I knew this ) but it was a bit noisy as the extractor for the kitchen started up quite early in the morning. Excellent breakfast and dinner choices and the drinks were reasonably priced but I was rather surprised to pay £4 for a small glass of peanuts!! Next time I’ll bring my own!!
