Great location, friendly and helpful staff are the positives. We must say a big thank you to the guy at reception for his wine recommendations and putting the heating and football on in the bar.Unfortunately the hotel is dated and in need of modernisation. We also found the rooms to be quite cold, but this was easy rectified using the A/C we also had a problem with ants in our room. Overall we found it to be a bit basic, but based on the room rate it was good value.
