    Whole hotel was spotlessly clean, the staff were very friendly and first class at their jobs. They answered all our questions with no trouble and offered to make our stay as smoothleyas it could be.

    8PhilPosted on: 1-17-2026

    Easy access, good location and check in was easy

    Beds weren’t great, shower was very small, no bath, and I expected a double bed to be made up, not two singles!

    7BrianPosted on: 1-17-2026

    Definitely the friendly helpful staff . Nothing was too much trouble for them. A big asset to the hotel.

    Couldn't work out how to turn off bedside light off and had to leave card key out. Worked out switch was hidden when I swivelled the light the next day.

    8AndrewPosted on: 1-11-2026

    All in all it was very good ,however, the breakfast items were only warm not hot ,the plates were not on a plate warmer which made the food even colder, the food itself was a great breakfast - just cold.

    Cold food and no red wine at the bar .
