The Hotel is conveniently located

We requested twin beds and received email confirmation of such. Upon arrival this was not the case the room was made into a double. We were running late for a function and needed housekeeping to correct matter urgently... After much arguing backwards abd forwards reception stopped rooms. Room We received was not up to scratch...no water in fridge, one coffee sachet just disappointed
