Clean quite comfortable and friendly. All excellent except the bathroom access
Pros:

Good size, great bathroom, clean, excellent breakfast

Cons:

I would have preferred that the bathroom was directly accessible from my room as you had to leave the room into the hallway by the front door to then go onto the bathroom.
They have put up a screen but it does not completely cover being seen if someone came to the door or came in the front door

Excellent continental breakfast which was left for me on a tray. I particularly liked the fresh yoghurt and frit. Comfortable bed and good quality bedding. Visitors have sole use of spacious modern bathroom adjoining bedroom.
