Rooms are basic but clean. All linen provided (towels/sheets etc) clean. Room had recently been redecorated. Furniture could do with updating. Tea/coffee/biscuits provided. Tv with all channels. Loads of free parking. Staff helpful. It’s not luxury but you get what you pay for. We wanted convenience to be close to family and it was fit for purpose.
