Quite acceptable but could have been better. Would not stay again.
Pros:

Breakfasts were cooked well and nice. Free parking. A fair price.

Cons:

Building/decorating items in dining room. bedroom carpet needs cleaning, a towel rail would be nice, easier access to staff would be better. Public area outside dirty and does not give a good impression.
