Convenient and Well-Equipped Stay
convenient locationhotel facilitiesnice restaurantgood parking
The location is very convenient. There were plenty of facilities available. The bar and restaurant were nice within the hotel. I found good parking. I also appreciated how clean and tidy the rooms were.
The shower had feeble water pressure and a faulty mixer, so it was virtually unusable.

The room was well-laid out and offered loads of space (ideal with mobility issues). The room also included a television with multiple channels, ensuring entertainment options were readily available. I found the bed comfortable.
