"€36 for breakfast, dated hotel badly in need of renovation"

2.0

You are very central to the town.

Room was very dated and badly needed a painting. The only method of heat was an oil filled radiator which was left on the fulltime which 1. Can not be safe and 2. When travelling with kids is not ideal. All of this I could have ignored except for the fact I booked room only as I was travelling with a child and they may or may not want breakfast. I phoned down at 9am for breakfast to be delivered as a child was under the weather and we had a bad sleep. I ordered 1 plate of pancakes and 3 sausages. They also brought very very cold toast and luke warm coffee. The sausages were horrible , but I didn't make a fuss. When we went to pay I was being charged €36!!! When I asked to speak to a managed they said I was charged for 2 full breakfasts. When I showed them the receipt and that it was pancakes and 3 small sausages, the best he could do was €26 and patronizingly " we will give you breakfast for free next time" as if there would be a next time. This is my 5th or 6th stay in the Old Ground down through the year and it is definitely the last!!!! Tiny travel kettle that took about 5minutes to boil 1 cup of water. Tiles in bathroom in need of proper clean white pastry mildew on tiles. Only body lotion beside the sink so you have to stretch in over the bath to get some shower gel to wash your hands. None of this I would have complained about if it wasn't for the breakfast price!
