Great value in a great location with friendly staff.
Pros:

Great location, super welcome at reception, great breakfast included, lovely clean room with view of the nearby town. Very good value.

Cons:

Just a couple of silly things that reception would have sorted straight away. Not enough milk and tea bags (love my tea in the morning.) Didn’t know how to get the right temperature on the shower and finally worked out how to get the lift working with the key card. (That final one was great for security but we hadn’t been told about this on arrival.) If we were staying for longer than a night I’d have asked at reception for more tea and about the shower.

Pros:

아침식사도 그럭저럭 괜찮았고 (채소는 없음), 커피머신의 커피가 맛났음. 그리고 깨끗함. drop off하는 곳도 있고, sheppard park(조금더 저렴이)도 너무 가까움. 역이랑 너무 가까워서 좋았음.

Cons:

소파베드 너무 작음... 4인가족(10살 쌍둥이)에게도 너무 작았음. 방에 냉장고 없음.

Nice but parking is a pain
Pros:

The hotel itself is lovely, finding the car park is a little hit and miss, took two goes round the one way system to find it, parking is very limited and not free! In house restaurant is great, rooms are lovely but no bath only a shower. After a long day on the road a bath is always welcome.

Not the best night sleep
Pros:

The room was comfortable, the staff were very friendly, breakfast was good

Cons:

In our room there was a glass panel in the wall of the bathroom meaning that the bedroom lit up when someone was in the bathroom, this was very annoying as my husband was up half the night, also there was a problem with the toilet flush, the toilet had to be flushed 3-4 times before the contents disappeared.

comfortable bed and all that you need for a short stay, breakfast VG. but damp smell overpowering
Pros:

breakfast very good plenty of it and good selection

Cons:

the fusty smell in the room due to the carpet near the bathroom being damp.. we realised this was because the shower was so powerful and due to the shower not being fully enclosed the bathroom floor became excessively wet.
