Great short stay Hotel
Pros:

The rooms are not big but fine for a short stay. It was clean and modern with a bath not a walk in shower. Good tea making items provided and large TV. Comfortable bed and good heater in room and heated towel rail in bathroom. Logan's bar,dining room has a good atmosphere and drinks and food very good. Good cooked breakfasts available. All Staff provided good service with a smile. Stayed before and would stay again.

Cons:

Price was a lot higher than last year. No draw unit to store clothes in.
