Lovely downstairs area, average rooms
Lovely bar and restaurant area. When going to the room these are not to the same standard as the downstairs. The room we had, had a flashing light in the bathroom, moldy shower curtain and handle broken on one of the draws. Bed was comfy enough and shower nice and powerful

Generally safe and convenient, limited facilities but staff are accommodating if you ask for water/ iron etc. Decor is a little dated (carpets/ curtains) and shower curtains need replacing. Otherwise a comfortable and clean bed and lovely staff!
