Clean, quiet lodge room, with parking space. Room was hot though, despite leaving windows open all day and night, and we couldn't get the WiFi to work. We did not sleep well the first night because the mattress had integral topper (or it may have been the base?) at the top, which was so hard it made my hips so sore I was in tears, turning over every 15 minutes to relieve pain and pressure on my hips. I took ibuprofen but was still sore and my spine clicked every time I turned over, having been pushed out of alignment by the too-hard bed. When I discovered the metal band in the mattress next morning, I turned the mattress over so it was at the bottom, and we both slept a lot better the second night. ||Leisure facilities were clean and provided perfect relaxation after long days of walking. Cooked breakfast was disappointing in quality, but pancakes were good. ||Receptionist was welcoming and helpful. Staff member Laura in the dining room was super efficient, attentive, and so lovely and welcoming that she made our day brighter after a difficult night's sleep! She is clearly an experienced and completely invaluable member of staff at Waterloo hotel. ||Rock-hard mattress, over hot room, unreliable WiFi and disappointing cooked breakfast reduced my star rating to 3, but the leisure facilities were good and staff were so welcoming and helpful that I've given a 4 star rating.
