Absolute amazing place to stay and the staff were so so friendly, always smiling, in a good mood and happy to help. The breakfast selection was brilliant from cereal to croissants to eggs benedict royale. Room was extremely clean on 1st inspection and was continued throughout the stay by the maids. Bar was awesome too. Dedicated parking too which was very helpful and not like other properties in area. We will definitely be staying here again 100%

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
it's a climb of 24 wide and solid steps to the floor with the rooms. This led to a well lit and wide hallway. The room was bigger than I thought, with a huge window and plenty of light. Very tidy and clean. They even provide earplugs as the ground floor is a nightclub. I didn't need them. The breakfast had a huge selection from a several choices of cooked breakfast, plus cereal, baked goods, yogurt, juices. The one drawback for me is there is no one on site overnight. However, guests were provide with an emergency number that is answered during the night, and that person is apparently very nearby.
