Having
stayed
here
in
2017
and
loved
that
experience,
I
was
looking
forward
to
getting
back
to
Solway
Park,
but
unfortunately
our
recent
stay
(three
nights
in
a
family
room)
was
a
let
down.
Starting
with
the
room
-
it
was
in
bad
need
of
some
basic
maintenance
with
loose
fittings
in
both
the
toilet
and
the
bathroom.
On
the
first
night
I
resorted
to
tightening
the
screw
on
the
toilet
door
knob
using
the
solitary
kitchenette
knife
as
it
was
so
loose
it
felt
like
it
was
going
to
fall
off.
There
were
similar
loose
fittings
in
the
bathroom
too,
including
the
shower
head.
Likewise
grout
lifting
in
the
shower
tiles
suggested
the
interior
of
the
room
had
not
been
adequately
maintained
in
a
while.
Communal
areas,
on
the
other
hand,
were
in
good
nick,
with
the
outdoor
and
indoor
pools
being
great,
and
likewise
for
the
kids
play
area.
Unfortunately,
due
to
short
staffing,
the
Grill
restaurant
was
not
available
for
the
cooked
breakfasts
we
had
paid
for
in
our
room
rate.
We
didnât
know
this
was
the
case
until
turning
up
for
breakfast
on
our
first
morning,
where
we
were
told
about
it,
and
that
we
were
meant
to
be
informed
on
check
in
(which
didnât
happen).
We
were
refunded
some
of
our
room
rate,
though
arguably
not
the
difference
to
a
cooked
breakfast
at
a
cafe.
So
a
continental
breakfast
of
toast,
cereal,
juice,
coffee,
and
fruit
followed,
where
we
heard
several
other
guests
wake
to
the
same
news
about
there
not
being
a
cooked
breakfast.
It
should
be
noted
that
throughout
this
the
staff
were
friendly,
efficient,
and
apologetic
about
the
situation
with
the
restaurant,
which
was
understandable
in
the
current
covid
environment.
However
it
shouldâve
been
communicated
to
guests
ahead
of
time,
as
it
had
evidently
been
ongoing
judging
by
things.
However,
for
what
youâre
paying
to
stay
at
Solway
Park,
we
decided
that
next
time
weâd
be
better
spending
that
money
either
in
Wellington
for
a
better
maintained
room
and
still
getting
breakfast
or
at
least
being
walking
distant
to
more
options.
Unfortunately
weâre
unlikely
to
be
back
until
weâve
seen
things
have
been
turned
around
by
the
owners.
