Genuinely woudn't change anything.
Pros:

Rooms were very well maintained, clean (everything), plus, the option to pre-order breakfast meant everything was cooked to order (not just dumped on the side like most hotel breakfasts!). Staff were accomodating, bar was friendly and had games to play. Can't fault it.

Cons:

Pros:

Arranging for a parking space was straightforward, although finding the car park took a couple of tries! The welcome was friendly and efficient. Our room was well equipped - it was a pleasant surprise to find two chairs. The bathroom was well designed and very clean.
