Bed was very comfortable. I slept really well. Only problem with the room was a bit short on the tea and coffee supplies. 4 little sealed pots of milk do not go far enough. Breakfast was good for me although the coffee was dreadful. I would stay here again. The staff are really great.

Lisa on reception who checked us in and out was very helpful and courteous. May in the dining room was very polite and friendly. Our room was a nice size. TV reception was a bit hit and miss. There were no drawers in the room to put underwear away so everything was on show on a shelf. Food was good. Buffet breakfast had plenty of choice. Dinner portions a fair size and tasty food.

I think for the rating and price, some updates to the rooms need to be made. The room entry doors do not meet the floor meaning you can hear others in their rooms constantly, and there's a draft. No way to control temperature in the rooms, and the curtains were dirty and decor quite old.

The room was too hot despite the heater being off. It also had a funny smell - like someone had been smoking in there. The staff and food were good.
