An overnight stop while travelling, all was good, parking outside room, spacious, good shower, enough crockery & cutlery for meals, options for eating out or getting essentials close. The only negatives- tiled floor could have had a mop. & black out curtain been heavier.

Very good facilities except smokers allowed to smoke right out front of my door. Being Asthmatic this is a serious concern. If no smoke would have given higher rating.
