a convenient location and had carpark available, overal a good stay, but poor tv channel selection
Pros:

it was handy to where I had to go for a meeting during the day he satff were all friendly. it was goot to have a carpark in the building.

Cons:

no sky tv, only the terrible free to air tv, which is useless. the breakfast needed to be betetr as only had scrambbled eggs, when I only like fried or poached eggs. would be good to be able to pay for leaving the car there all day for the meeting, as didn't need the room, but I felt I had to pay extra for the late chekout, just to keep my car there a bit longer.

Nice place for a staycation
Pros:

I really like the room — it’s clean, tidy, and well‑maintained. The buffet breakfast is another highlight; the selection is generous, and we especially enjoyed the fresh breads and the made‑to‑order omelette.

Cons:

What I didn’t like is that the hot water is inconsistent — sometimes it turns cold. I also wish there were complimentary water in the room, and it would be nice to have hot chocolate powder available.
