ok, just
I ordered the deluxe room. There was nothing deluxe about it. It was very basic. I should have just gone with the basic room.

Overall a very good experience helpful and polite staff and excellent food service in a great environment there are however some areas which should be considered. This hotel has no lift, has many levels and is not wheelchair friendly the rooms are good but areas that concerned us were a poor fit toilet seat and a non working extract fan, we did have a radiator leak but that was attended to, external road noise was a barrier to sleep!

I had my wedding reception in this hotel in 1985. It still has the same decor in 2024! Great staff and a popular bar, but little physical investment.
