Second Stay as Good as the First
Pros:

Great staff, high level of cleanliness. Great restaurant excellent prices.

Cons:

Poor pillows…horrible foam. 1 pillow is too low, 2 pillows gave me both neck and head aches. There can be a bit of a wait at the bar during busy periods.

Comfortable , friendly and clean
Pros:

The relaxed feel. Felt more like a pub with rooms rather than a hotel.

Cons:

Our only disappointment was for the price point of the room , the coffee offering in the room and at breakfast was poor. A proper coffee machine at breakfast and a capsule machine in the rooms. A sachet of Nescafé doesn’t quite fit. It’s more budget hotel.
