Great Value
Pros:

Size of the room, very clean, lovely breakfast selection. Very nice interior, restaurant and lobby areas.

Cons:

Parking Charges, although cheap, guests should not be charged for parking. The car park also requires serious attention as it's in a state of disrepair. The building is looking old and requires a freshen up on the outside.
