Excellent staff, we arrived a little early but was no trouble for them, very accommodating. Excellent clean rooms, well appointed, had everything we needed. Located on the bus route which made travel very easy
Lots of great extra touches like proper milk (not longlife sachets), Heating and lights were on when I arrived on cold, wet night. Electric blankets and heated towel rails are also a lovely addition!
This property was perfect to our needs. Nice wee touches in the room, made us feel really welcome. Would definitely recommend and I would definitely stay again

We would recommend this property to everyone… and have already done so. The staff are friendly and welcome. It’s exceptional in cleanliness and being well cared for!
Lovely friendly staff. Unit very clean & well arranged. Noisy road but we had ear plugs so ok. Very close to a lot of things, incl cafes and restaurants. Weather was superb. Stay was perfect.
Great value for money, clean and comfortable.
Bathroom cabinetry is showing its age but meticulously clean with a well equiped mini kitchen great for family's.
good parking, hear slight traffic noise at night, queen bed was terrible to sleep on was very springy and bad roll together, great selection of TV channels, the bathroom was through the kids bedroom and the door kept getting stuck, lovely friendly reception on arrival.
