Great staff, comfortable, clean and close to town.
Pros:

Close to town and free parking

Cons:

The room heating meant no control - so unable to turn heat up when colder. It was comfortable, just not as warm as I would usually like.
Also….the bar closed at 9.30pm Saturday night! So after the rugby game finished, many out of town guests came upstairs for a drink only to be told the bar was closing…which was a little disappointing.
