Food was excellent for breakfast and lunch. We also booked a sister hotel recommended by staff for an evening meal, which was awarded a Michelin star recently, and it was delicious and affordable considering the quality of food. I was a bit surprised when we were asked to pay our full bill before we had even seen the condition of the room. In my previous experience elsewhere, we simply handed over a credit card charged at the end of the stay. There was no housekeeping during our stay: a sign on the back of the door said it couldn’t be provided at this time, (we noticed it on our second day after wondering what we’d done wrong!) but if we wanted anything such as clean towels, clean cups or shampoo, we only had to ask. A brown paper bag was left outside the room after our first night with toilet roll and top ups for tea and coffee that we brought in, but no biscuits or clean cups and we made our own bed anyway. If I had known, I would have brought along some basics to keep the toilet clean, or perhaps a bottle beside it for us to freshen it up. On the second night, we saw someone cleaning the rooms but only ones vacated to get ready for the next people coming. The third night we asked for towels and toiletries. This was my only disappointment with the Rodney, and I’m sure it will be explained as standard policy. If I had known about the lack of housekeeping, we may not have chosen it. People tend to come away for a complete break after all. Perhaps make it clear on website?
