I was greeted and settled in easily. Enjoyed my overnight stay. It was ashame I didn’t know the bistro was closed that day for renovations as the menu looked most inviting. Other than that for a practical place to stay overnight I’d highly recommend.

Last minute booking . Accommodation was perfect for a one night stay while in town. Wanted just a place to lay the head and not the Ritz Carlton. It’s a pub room , exactly what I expected. Ladies at the bar were helpful on my arrival.

Overall it was fine but there are no staff overnight and their fire alarm went off at 5am. There was no one to deactivate it so it went for a full 20 minutes before it switched off automatically.
