We had an amazing stay at the hotel this week! The room was spotless a the staff were so kind. We were also provided with a free breakfast which had many options for hot and cold food. The location at the hotel is great so close to the local town meaning you don’t need to take public transport! I will hopefully be returning and recommending to all!

Room was ok in size for one night any longer it would be very cramped. Breakfast was awful, food was very bad quality and kept running out of it, everything was deep fat fried and not great tasting. Had to wait on bread, butter, most of Breakfast items and orange juice to be refilled and this was at 9am. Staff let things run out and no rush to refill. Walking past reception staff were more bothered eating from the buffet than worrying about guests walking past them not a great look.
