Pay for parking in the hotel..breakfast very good
Pros:

Location was very nice and secluded, big car park, lobby was very nice.

Cons:

We paid for the parking on the iPad outside the hotel which turned out cost more than if we had just paid in the hotel but we had no way to know this…

Pros:

Big hotel, great staff.

Cons:

Poor noise control, staff not owning the issues, duty manager hid away. Had to move a family of four away from a noisy room - move the culprits not the victims.
