It was nice except the dinner.
Pros:

We actually missed the breakfast which looked very good.

Cons:

The food I bought in the evening a meat feast pizza and a lasgane they were terrible for the price.
The pizza was a cheap pizza with slices of sandwich chicken chunks on top and it wasnt cooked all the way through. I think it had been microwaved it was cold in the centre.
The lasgane was fine but watery and the garlic bread wasn't sour dough.

A good hotel needing the odd tweak.
Pros:

Hotel was clean and tidy, breakfast was a good selection.

Cons:

Most of the hot breakfast was undercooked, also for an accessible room the bed is very low.
