I just want to praise Candice on reception when we checked in. She was exceedingly helpful and understanding in trying to find a suitable room for us. She dealt with it very professionally and we couldn't have asked for it to be dealt with any better.

The room was clean with basic amenities, and the bed was reasonably comfortable, though for someone used to sleeping on a very soft mattress, I found it a little firm for my tastes. There was a comprehensive selection for breakfast, which was pleasing to see. The quality was lacking, but given that it was included with the stay, I cannot complain too much. Overall, the value was superb.

Friendly reception staff and the room was clean and tidy. The room heating control was not easy to understand and did not appear to work when adjusted. Limited evening meal choice and the meal I had was not good. The green beans were not cooked properly, hard and cold and the chicken was smothered in sauce, instead of allowing you to choose how much you want yourself. So would not recommend eating a meal here.
