The staff were very nice and the breakfast was quite good. A bus stop is just outside the property and the transportation is convenient. There are groceries and restaurants near by.

Very convenient for me. Clean , quiet, comfy bed gave me a good nights sleep . Good shower room and toiletries. Arrived at seven car park full no space for me. No one on reception when I arrived or bell to press. Woke up in the morning to smell of bacon in my room windows were closed . Decided to open window for fresh air only to see large air extractor below emitting steam presumably from the kitchen Knock on door at 9.30 in the morning from staff stating they wanted to clean room . No one on reception when I gave in key and left

Very quirky property. Room was nice and bathroom excellent. Bed comfortable but pillows not nice. Heating system constantly clunking through the night which resulted in a poor nights sleep.
