We keep coming back
Pros:

Staff are lovely.
Everywhere is very clean.

Cons:

Some hot breakfast items (sausages and beans) are very cheap.
Having an adjoining room was not great - but that was put right for us.
We weren't keen on the multiple face piercings on one of the reception staff.

I was kept awake by noise from other guests, and would not return
Pros:

We did not have breakfast

Bathroom was modern and clean with toiletries included. Towels provided.

Room had central heating and was well equipped.

Cons:

Property itself was tired and car park seriously in need of care. Lots of pot holes, large areas of road surface missing making it difficult to avoid areas that could potentially damage the car.
The room was not adequately sound proofed meaning that noisy neighbours disturbed sleep.
