Disliked: Room comfort

Time rooms and awful parking

The hotel is well placed in the middle of the town, but car access is difficult and stressful. The hotel is clean and the staff friendly, but I have two complaints: The rooms are minute. We were 2 plus dog and felt quite claustrophobic. Also the off-site parking in a public car park is much too narrow for a large car, causing significant damage to mine. We were so disappointed but these 2 factors that we cut our stay short and left a day early. Will never go back!
