Pros:

Room was clean and the staff were pleasant.

Cons:

The rooms were in a separate building from the bar /reception. This wasn't clear on booking. Very basic for price paid.
Had to walk across if you needed anything, which got annoying after a few trips - there was a phone in the hall but it didn't work.

Breakfast was awful - poor quality and expensive. Tea, coffee, juice etc was extra. Much better value to go to McDonalds across the road.
