Very pleasant staff - room nice a quiet - food great
Pros:

Friendliness of staff - free parking and WiFi.

Cons:

Because of exceptionally hot weather the room was very hot despite windows being open all night - a fan in the room would have helped - some minor hiccups with tv reception but otherwise a lovely stay would recommend.
