Pros:

Check in was quick and easy, room was a decent size, main areas were nice enough and clean

Cons:

The room was very cold and there didn't appear to be any central heating. There was a plug-in radiator in the wardrobe which helped heat the room. Room's are pretty tired looking and the tv barely worked.

A great place for a weekend break.
Pros:

It was comfortable but the time we were there one o go the wings was undergoing a redecoration programme. The room was clean and the bed comfortable despite the fact that the divan padding was coming say in clumps. The food was of good quality and hot when served. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful

Cons:

To be water on arrival was brown, due so we were told to the filter cleaning that had taken place that day it was rectified quickly were reported to reception
