The room was comfortable and clean. All the members of staff I came across were really friendly. The gym was small but very well equipped and kept in good condition. The breakfast was good, although I would have preferred more vegan options such as yoghurt, pastries and fruit. I also really liked that the time ranges for breakfast, check in and check out were generous.

Great location, lovely room, convenient with a car park not too far from the city centre. Would have been helpful to know the road was being closed on Sunday morning for a marathon, but thankfully the closure didn't cause us too much trouble. Great breakfast!
