A comfy break in excellent location. Generally clean and quiet. Good value for money
Pros:

Breakfast was very good. Bacon excellent. De cafe Tea available. A good selection of breakfast fare.

Cons:

Toilet could have been cleaner.
There was a lot of sound at night due to child waking and playing at night. Also there was a lot of doors banging throughout the night.
