"A very well run family hotel, always someone on hand for advice."

"A very well run family hotel, always someone on hand for advice."
I am a 24 hour carer and needed to catch up on some missed sleep. I am not very observant so may have missed a 'do not disturb sign' to hang on the door. I understand that rooms need to be attended too, but I would have loved not to have been disturbed. Read less
Likes:
Its neat and clean and very comfortable as well as being well situated. It was amazing to have a bath and a shower, I enjoyed that more than anything.
Dislikes:
I felt the mattress was not as good as it should be, though I did not suffer any backache or have any problems.
Response from Camelia Hotel:
We thank you for your mostly favourable comments. With reference to being disturbed, we do apologise for this, but there are 'do not disturb' signs in the desk drawer. Alternatively, if our Receptionists are informed, they will ensure that our housekeepers know that you wish to sleep in. We note that you found the mattress uncomfortable and have installed a new one today. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to the Camelia again in the future
