Lovely clean room that had everything we needed. Appreciated the fan provided as it was a very hot night. Had our evening meal there and can highly recommend - it was delicious. Free Continental breakfast was also good. Great value. Would definitely stay again.

My only negative was that the bathroom had an odor to it, maybe something to do with a hole in the wall.

Noisy

the room number 12 was located next to a busy road and garage the room was Hot with no air con , had a small fan but with the windows open found it difficult to sleep. the other window overlooked the back of the hotel with the refuse lorry arriving just after 6am. the overall score is reflected in the lack of sleep through noise.

The single room was basic but definitely adequate.The plumbing was noisy. The traffic was noisy and delivery van too. The stand out features for me were the friendliness of all the staff and the quality of the food both the most important features of a stay for me. I would definitely return.

Good Hotel in a good location

Stayed a few times before. Fair value. Excellent choice for a base if you are exploring the area or just need an overnight stay. Good facilities, comfortable beds, good powerful shower, continental breakfast incl. (extra for full English), and good selection of beers. Added bonus of free parking. All round would recommend.
