Pros:

We found the staff courteous and helpful. The restaurant was was ready available with a good selection to choose at a fair price. The room was clean and tidy the bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The water pressure needs improvement and the pillows upgrading. A toaster and microwave would be good with utensils.

Pros:

Friendly staff

Cons:

Tired room 105. Cracked floor tiles in the bathroom. Bedside table scruffy. Cracked basin. Couldn't unlock the door to the parked car from the outside. Key did not work. Had to go through the main door to open the door in the corridor.
Perhaps the owner should spend some money on maintenance and not on his beautiful Bentley parked outside!
