Quirky, quiet but...few lights

Repeat customer here. Lovely refit with everything brand spanking new and clean. surprisingly quiet for the main road location. Will stay again Lighting was odd. Needs more thought cos there are pockets of darkness at night. There were lights only in the kitchen and around the bed + entrance. The desk was effectively unlit for working at. the sitting area depended on glow from the kitchen. Also a blanket would have been nice on the comfy settee. Keira at reception was professional and very welcoming

This is essentially an apart hotel. The heating doesn’t work well and it feels like a 3 rather than 4 star.

Nice hotel but ....

The hotel itself was nicely arranged. The issue I had was the air conditioning / Heating was broken and it was quite cold. No carpets on the floor and no heating made it difficult. No alternative was offered which wasnt great
