Room clean and comfortable
Pros:

Location was great. Value for money. Great shower and comfortable bed. Room and linen clean.

Cons:

You could hear some road noise. Booked a ground floor room due to knee issues. Entry was ground floor but a number of stairs to bedroom and bathroom. Didn’t see any staff members. Reception closed at 6 pm on a Friday night, start of school holidays. Didn’t open until 10 am so saw no staff at all.

Pros:

Room comfortable, spacious and everything we needed for our stay for the night.
