Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The entire building is tired and not up to standard for a hotel. The walls between room s are paper thin-you can hear everything! When a door closes the room shakes. Wood work is chipped, ceilings cracked. The mattress are really firm, we both woke up with painful joints. The phone in our room wasn’t plugged in and we couldn’t find the cable when we had a problem at 1am! The staff are friendly and the rooms are clean and warm. Shower pressure was good and no issues with hot water. Breakfast -food was ok but simple things like sugar, was not on the table, had to walk across the dining room to fetch it from the dining table. Car park spaces are tiny, I climbed out the passenger door. Overall,the lovely staff are not enough to counter the drab and tired amenities. I would not visit again.

No hit water.. no heating .. very dated room and bathroom.. we were given another room that had heating and hot water, but still very dated. Bar was ok and prices were about right for a hotel. Breakfast , served buffet, prefer to help myself and not be given what the server thinks , like at school, eggs looked soft fried, but were hard. I suppose it was fair for the price we oaid
