Underwhelming Stay with a Few Issues

dusty surfacesbasic station
My stay had some noticeable downsides. The lack of cleanliness was apparent. I saw dust on surfaces. The room's tea and coffee station was very basic with limited supplies. I found only one coffee sachet on arrival. The duvet was too heavy and warm (a lighter option would be appreciated).

Excellent Family Hotel

I appreciated the pool for my children. The location was convenient to the Gleneagle. It was only a short walk. Breakfast offered a hot selection in addition to a continental selection.
I had an issue with the bar service. I waited a long time for dessert. The staff seemed to forget my order because of where I sat.
