The room was clean and had everything we needed. The free parking was a huge bonus. Breakfast was excellent with a friendly and helpful member of staff. For my personal taste there were far too many artificial flowers - a single bloom even if artificial would be far more tasteful.

The young girl who was on reception when I arrived on Thursday and on Friday morning was amazing. She was so helpful and went over and beyond what would be expected. She is a real credit to the hotel. Breakfast was great and the room was spotlessly clean. I wouldn't hesitate in staying here and will recommend this hotel to others.
