It could have been better.
Pros:

Staff were very friendly. Food in dining room was good. Lovely view from dining room.

Cons:

Room 214. The view from the bedroom window was not pleasant. The window only opened slightly. The room was cramped. There was only one bedside light which was annoying as I like to read whilst husband sleeps. Only having one central table meant there was not enough drawer space for personal items i.e. medications and underwear.
The wardrobe was in a corner at the bottom of the bed, leaving no space to walk past when the doors were open.
In the bathroom, the space or lack of it meant if you sat on the toilet, the toilet roll holder pressed into your arm. The toilet felt very cramped tightly between the bath and the wall..
There was no parking available which meant having to park a couple of streets away. (I am neither young or fit).
