Pros:

Location and cleaner

Cons:

The hotel did not provide hand towels. There were also only two coffee sachets for two adults for a two nights. The liquid soap provided was only one small bottle per person, which is really only enough for one shower, even though we stayed for two nights.

Pros:

Friendly staff on reception and at breakfast and a good location for the town centre and outlying areas.

Cons:

Breakfast- facilities were clean and well organised but it was let down by the hot food, which was lukewarm. Everything else was lovely, a lot of options, fruit, continental, plenty of everything.
