Excellent location, friendly staff, clean and tidy
Pros:

Location, breakfast buffet

Cons:

The ensuite was small, which was okay but the placement of the toilet was not ideal. We had to turn our shoulders on an angle to be able to sit. It might sound like nit-picky thing but it was very uncomfortable for us both as we have broad shoulders.

Great hotel and restaurant in central location.
Pros:

The location to town centre. It was a compact room and perfect for a short stay. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable!

Cons:

I wasn’t a fan of the bathroom layout., and I didn’t like the shelving in the shower because of where they were located. Otherwise bathroom was functional and clean.
