Breakfast definitely needs some improvement but the hotel overall was spot on for our stopover on the way the Cornwall. Staff were lovely and really friendly. Hotel is clean and the room was set up for our family of 4. Plenty of parking (small additional charge), great WiFi. Really good value overall and definitely recommend.
