Nice hotel, efficient staff. Good breakfast!
Pros:

Arriving at the hotel, there was a large car park with plenty of spaces. Reception managed to book us in quickly and efficiently. Food in the hotel was good and staff managed our order quickly and efficiently. The Bar was pleasant and the provision of a pool table provided an hours entertainment.
Breakfast staff were attentive and food was nice.

Cons:

Rooms were a little disappointing as there was no view and an air conditioning/ventilation unit out on the roof area that was operating at full power until approx 23:00.
