Very pleasant welcome on arrival and thorough information given (although some of it turned out incorrect). The room was basic but had good amenities with continental breakfast provided. The bed was on the hard side. On the surface, everything was clean but found to be in need of attention behind doors, around light switches and handles and on the entry patio. The meal at the Tavern was very good. Just very disappointed we had very little sleep due to other guests partying next door. When we rang reception they came and asked them to quieten down (11pm) but they still carried on, albeit a little quieter, till well after midnight.
