Lovely single night stay for family of four. Staff were lovely and welcoming, breakfast was continental style but everyone ate something. Room was large and the bathroom was well sized with great smelling shower gel and shampoo. Would recommend and revisit again! Handy for the station and a short walk into the city centre.
