Comfortable, convenient and close enough to town to work for us.
Pros:

Great location next to the station. A little bit of a walk in to town but it was acceptable.

Cons:

The fact the car park next to the hotel wasnt subsidised for guests. It was a car park 10-15min walk away which isn't ideal.

Unbeatable location if you are travelling by train.
Pros:

Unbeatable location, and the service was excellent. The fact that you can skip the cleaning service in exchange of a voucher in their restaurant is a great eco-friendly idea!

Cons:

Due to the size of the room, the price is a little high.

Mini break to celebrate my birthday , as a treat from my diff
Pros:

Location so close to the railway station and the many places to eat or buy food was outstanding

Cons:

Request to clean your room only meant that they’d make your bed I.e just straighten the duvet and put the pillows upright . No cleaning actually took place
