Do not accept room 201 if you want to sleep

I have stayed here before and it was great. Unfortunately this time I had room 201 which must have been next to / above / below some sort of boiler or machine that vibrated and whirred all night long, constantly. Did not sleep at all. Otherwise it is a good hotel.

John and his team run the place with grace and pride - really good location and everywhere locally is easy to get to, also it’s close to shops so can get things if needed for kids / family. Will consider staying there again for next trip to the locality.
