I was in room 307, which was great. Ensuite was lovely and clean. TV in room was good and WiFi was great. Car Park was large but not free. Breakfast was included in price of room, I had a cooked breakfast - the scrambled egg was very grainy (not pleasant). I also had a chirizo and chicken panini in the evening and there was very little chicken in it! In summary room and staff were great but would not eat here again.
