Got charged £273 when the room was £199 and x2 breakfasts at £14pp. When I queried this the staff initially didn't seem to understand and then said it must be a £50 deposit which I'll get back when I check out however yet to receive this. Ideal location for start of marathon which is why I picked it however I will say the bed was quite uncomfortable.
