Had a really nice stay. Weather was on the hot side so nice to have a air con room to cool off. Shame the seating area around the bar and where you eat food was air con as that was a bit uncomfortable to enjoy a relaxing time with a cold pint

Good stop over

A good hotel for a single night stop over, definitely good value for money with breakfast included. The restaurant was very quiet during dinner and service was on the slow side, we'd probably go elsewhere if we were to stay again. The room was clean and the bed comfortable, the curtains cut out the majority of light and the bathroom was clean and tidy too.
