Not as nice as my last visit

Smart, clean hotel. Stayed here before but this time, the evening menu had far less dishes on offer than before. Staff not very friendly and some were quite curt. Such a shame.

Enjoyable stay. Will use this hotel again.

This hotel has had an upgrade since my last visit. We booked a ground floor accessible twin room which was really spacious especially the bathroom and walk in shower. Bed’s really comfortable. Overall a great stay and would return.

freezing room 15 degrees I was blamed for making a late booking was eventually moved room after an hour sitting in the cold. Wasn’t offered anything else and met with flippancy when a bit more care would have been nice. Nice location and nice breakfast. Cheaply renovated borders and old ripped wallpaper painted over but in all it’s a nice hotel.
