Lovely hotel and host but very noisy
Pros:

Connor was friendly and so welcoming. Great games room that my son loved. Bar looked nice. Room decorated lovely and clean and tidy. Small but for the price was perfect. Location great and a secure car park at the top of the road.

Cons:

Unfortunately it’s was extremely noisy. Now I expect noise in a hotel, however as we were at the top of the hotel at the front we had to have window open due to heat and all night all we heard were the smokers outside. At one point a budding Eminem decided to rap for 40 mins straight pushing 1am so neither me or my child had a good sleep after a long day of travelling. There are signs up saying quiet time from 10pm to 7am but these were just ignored and not enforced. Unfortunately for this reason it would put me off staying again unless I got a room away from the street side.

Staff were lovely, but room was tiny and beds really uncomfortable
Pros:

The bar and games room were nice, and everywhere looked clean

Cons:

The bed was so uncomfortable, barely slept, and our family room was on top floor, so I had to carry everything up aswell as my todler (not practical)
