Room clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast in hotel fabulous, staff helpful and lots of choice. Evening meal not so good, fairly tasteless curry and rice. Previous week had a "packed to go" breakfast and it was dire 😫 having been promised bacon and egg sandwich, it was a cold prepackaged one, with crisps, a small packet of 3 digestive biscuits, a yoghurt with no spoon, a bottle of water and no serviette, and it cost £17 😯. A shame that an "airport" hotel does not cater for early flights 😫
