So sorry to say our visit this time was way below what we are used to. We only had a "continental" breakfast but this was no more than fruit, toast and yogurt. No pastries or croissants that we've had on previous visits. We booked breakfast at book in but their system never registered us with the breakfast team. We had to ask for top ups for hot water and milk. Coffee was not pleasant. It used to be filter coffee but this time we were served granules. On the second morning we ran out of milk, literally! A member of staff had to go to the supermarket to get some. On a plus note, the full english did look pretty good but i can't comment on taste as we didn't have it.We did find out as we were leaving that they were in the middle of a management reshuffle so this may just be a minor glitch and things will rapidly improve. We do like it here as it is well placed for the designer outlet and park and ride access to York. We are also within easy reach of the Yorkshire coast and just down the road from Leeds and Doncaster.

Good parking. Nice restaurant. Location: 2km outside of selby. We went there spontaneously and got the last room for the night. The room was not nice. It seemed it could use a little more cleaning. Bathroom was bad. Also seemed like it could use more cleaning, toilet paper holder broke at the slightest touch. Soap dispenser seemed dirty. Wood panels under sink also loose. All in all for what we have paid we were not happy.

We went for a Sunday dinner. Looked OK. But disappointing as the meal was cold asked for it to be reheated and came back no better. We felt it was a waste of money and won't be going back.
