The accommodation itself was in excellent place and had a wide parking area so no stress to find reliable places to park car over night. The rooms were clean, staff was excellent and breakfast had a lot of variety and selections with healthy options and was able to take breakfast away too. The staff was very welcoming and made us feel very comfortable. Overall had a great time and was happy upon leaving.
