tired decoroutdated bathroom
i found the hotel somewhat disappointing. cobwebs were noticeable, especially during breakfast when i sat near the window. the decor needs a refresh and the curtains should be replaced. i had an executive room, but i'm unsure what made it "executive" as the furniture felt old and the bathroom could use an update.

I found the hotel to be quite conveniently located near the train station. It made arrival simple. my room was spacious and i felt very comfortable there. the staff was helpful by providing local dining recommendations, wonderful. the pool area looked so inviting, though i sadly didn't get the chance to use it this time.
the tv in my room seemed a bit small, though i didn't spend much time watching it.

Breakfast offered plenty of choices like cereal, fruit, and croissants. I found them very satisfying. there were also hot options available including scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausages that i appreciated.

My room was tidy and very clean. I was quite happy about that! the inclusion of a fridge was really handy for keeping drinks cold. off-road parking was available, which i found convenient. It was such a relief.

The hotel's location was super convenient. It was close to shops and the coach station for pickup. Free parking was also available and was excellent. The room was spacious. The bathroom was lovely!!!
I found the entrance to be unclean. Most of the doors were very dirty, actually. I also saw cobwebs in the dining room. The pictures on the site were not what I saw on arrival.
