ExcellentSep 20199.6
I had to wait ages to be served so decided in the end just to go for the toast as I didn't want to spend ages inside as it was such a nice day and my stay was only short. I understand the staff were busy but it would have been nice for my toast order to have been taken more promptly. I always stay at the Clifton when visiting friends over here as my grandparents went there regularly every summer in the 1950s.
Slow service at breakfast.

Nothing. I expected something different
The room booked was different online than the room given at the hotel. We ended up paying £38 more to get another room.
