Very good despite the disadvantages ( above). It would be good to have a sitting area outside for sunny days
Pros:

Good parking, very clean,very helpful staff, good breakfast,good situation in town

Cons:

The studio1 didn’t have any windows and was a bit claustrophobic and dark.,and also a lack of ‘work’ surfaces to put things on , especially in the bathroom-also not enough hooks/rails for towels. Some information for using the tv would have been helpful too.
