Other than the cold halls which had no daylight or heating the venue was excellent. Not many were brave enough to remove their coats. That's just one gripe, and a cold playing environment is not unusual for a non-hotel hosted chess congress.
The café is a real attraction, sensible prices i.e. Coffee was 50p. Can of juice and Chips for lunch £1.50. A fair amount of choice too and bacon/egg rolls in the morning was a nice start to the days chess.
