Pros:

Rooms were comfortable and clean.Breakfast was exceptional.Location excelent

Cons:

Parking wss poor.I rang to reserve a car park and was told it was tight with not much room.I told them i would bring my midsize car and was told that was fine and i was allocated a park on the ground floor.Upon arrival they had given the park to a suv and i was told to park on the third floor which took considerable time to manouver in and out of
The only bad point of our stay.
