Good value for room size, disappointed about the breakfast
Pros:

Great location, nice big room (room 3) huge bathroom. staff lovely

Cons:

Room was pretty cold, heating system very loud, unfortunately as it was winter we had to keep it on through the night. Breakfast chef didn’t turn up so no breakfast available next day, staff member offered us free lunch but we had to head home.
