Spacious and quiet but not perfect
Clean, spacious and quiet. Comfortable bed with a range of pillows to choose from. Aircon worked fine but made a screeching sound that prevented use whilst sleeping and morning shower was only luke warm - perhaps needs a few minutes to warm up.

Check-in process is easy (self serve / contactless) and the room is clean, spacious and most importantly, dog friendly. I was traveling with my dog and the room was spacious enough to put my dog bed. The bathroom had good hot shower and generally in good condition. I would definitely stay here again.

We tried to contact the hotel on the number provided just after 6.00 pm several times as we had not received the PIN code to collect the after hours key from the Key safe. Numerous calls made and not returned. It took several more calls once we arrived to sort the access out. Further the Country code was needed on my mobile to received the code. This was not made clear at all and my mobile is in my Hotel.com contacts. The lights outside are very bright resulting in the blinds not blocking out enough light.. result poor sleep.
