Comfortable stay

Clean, spacious room. Breakfast not so good. Also the Bistro was closed for 2 of our 3 night stay so we had to look elsewhere for our evening meal. We had an early morning trip so were given a "breakfast box" instead of breakfast. This was not very good and could be vastly improved. Parking was good, safe and secure. Staff on reception very helpful

There is a night club near buy and if you are there on a Fri/Sat night the music is incredibly loud. The in room facilities were basic, for example the tv only had free to air channels. I won’t stay here again.

Disliked: Amenities
I rated 3 as I am not impressed becuse of the following: - lobby could be better lighted. - our bed is a bit squeeky and unstable because it rolls. - No bath robe, no slipper - No free drinking water unlike other 3-4 hotels, they offered drinking water - Can't cast my phone into the telly. - Door could be more secured by putting an automatic hinge above. I have to drag the door to close always
