Conveniently located. Room was clean and very well serviced. Property looked like it was in the middle of being renovated. It needs it, as the decor must be 40 years old: needs updating (including converting the weird bath recess and in room hand basin, with separate toilet room into an enclosed ensuite. Breakfast was good. Staff were helpful.
