Dated, but clean. Need to get rid of pigeons and improve breakfast.
Pros:

My bed was comfy, I had a hot shower and the room was clean. The location was central and we managed to get parked in the carpark both evenings.

Cons:

My room was noisy - there were pigeons nesting on the windowsill that kept me awake. I had to sleep with white noise to drown them out.

We needed to leave very early with work so we asked if they could do a breakfast to go, they said yes and it would be on the reception desk - we got up at 5.30, it wasn't there - I wandered around in the dark and eventually found someone who had it in the kitchen - we were given a tuna sandwich and a chicken sandwich. My bread was mouldy.

Cooked breakfast the next day was ok but the sausages were awful - surely there's no actual meat in them!

The atmoshere and the team were great. The food was really good, we had meals 2 nights and they were really good..great location.

Cons:

The mattress was a bit soft for us, we are used to a firmer one,. The breakfast in the morning was warm, it could have been a bit hotter. Overall tho we had a great stay.
