Convenient , comfy beds. will use again.
Pros:

Room was nice , bed comfortable, view not so nice but it was quiet. The breakfast room was nice and spacious .

Cons:

The bedroom was very cold on entering i altered the thermostat but had to get out of bed to put socks on as i was so cold, and my family in another room mentioned the same thing. Also didn't like the glass in the bathroom door as it disturbs other person when getting up through the night. It didn't mention on site that there was a charge for parking.

Very comfortable stay
Pros:

The hotel was a great price and a lovely property with everything we needed for our stay.

Cons:

It wasn’t right in the centre but a short cab ride away. It didn’t bother us at all as Ubers came in minutes and cosy around £6
