Lovely staff, nice breakfast, great location and easy parking. Decor is a bit tired and bed wasn’t very comfy. They are currently fixing the lift so maybe that’s the start of a refurb. Overall, not sure it was great value for money but a decent place to stay for a night.

The room was clean. The shower left a lot of water on the floor requiring it to be moped up using towels. Some of the bedding was a bit tired.
