The staff was GREAT. The rooms were clean and practical. I always stay here, just enjoyed another six nights. The location is great, and the food is 100% bang on. I've been coming here for over five years. I love it all!!!

The room needs some updates. The bed was alright but small and dipped at the edges. Parking also needs addressing on site. I would book here again however.
