Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The welcome was warm, and the guidance offered was clearly understood. The room was clean, well presented, along with a spotless bathroom. The bed was okay, a tad lumpy but a good night's sleep was achieved. Drinks facilities were provided, shame the cups were so small. What's the problem with providing good mugs for a proper drink. I had dinner in the bar. Albeit there was a rather rowdy group in, it didn't dampen the overall experience. Timothy Taylors was a good pint, the curry was very tasty with plenty of chicken. Overall my visit was extremely positive and I would expect to return.
