8/10 Very good

Great location just a little worn in the bedrooms
The entrance, Reception staff and bar are great. The bedroom although a great size with a nice bathroom, could do with new furnishing, the main table with the tv had a number of large chunks of wood split off, the curtains were badly stained and the carpet was tired with a few areas if paint peeling

8/10 Very good

It was a very nice stay, staff were friendly room was clean. Lifts are a bit old fashioned, the only negative thing to say was we had to sit on same table as a stranger with my kids, the guy just talk on the phone during our breakfast and made my kids uncomfortable. Overall me and my kids enjoyed the experience of the hotel.
