Clean room, well serviced and a good shower and well laid out, modern bathroom. The bedroom was very cold with windows fixed open and the only working radiator in the bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included in the price, but this was not clear as the room menu had it priced, a bit confusing.

Would have got 5 stars as the room itself and breakfast were really good ... but the WiFi didnt work in the room and the TV screen froze and wouldnt switch off .. no spare remotes ... they couldnt look at it till morning when we were checking out. Disappointing as had wanted to relax and watch football on my laptop but couldnt. Paid for wifi and didn't get it 🤔
