Large room, quite noisy being on the Highway. Could hear people in the next room plugging in to power points and the TV. Bed was a bit lumpy but reasonable comfy. The rooms could do with an update but quite comfortable. Shower had good pressure.

Great to be able to have a room away from the road noise. Staff courteous and attentive. Sad that neither the restaurant or bar facility was open, but good that the property is a very short distance from a friendly bistro and bottle shop.

Loved the room as it was clean. The beds were comfortable. Close to the centre of town so not far to travel to get everything you need. Have to admit that the bath was extra small especially for a 6ft person so was a little bit disappointed that I didn't quite get to relax as much as I wanted. There was only 2 spare pillows in cupboard and when I asked at the front desk if I was able to get just 1 more. I was bluntly refused even though I paid for 3 people and you would think that they would have just given us an extra one. So hence why they only got the lower star rating from me. Not sure if I will stay there again as I'm sure that I would get better service at a different one
