a very positive experience!
fantastic locationgood parkingclean roomtidy room
The location was fantastic. It was really easy to get to from the motorway (i drove!). also, the parking was good, always a plus. the room i stayed in was very clean and tidy. I felt very comfortable. it did what it said on the tin for the night!
there was a very faint smell of damp in the lobby, but it really wasn't noticeable once you were inside the room. it didn't cause any problem.

a decidedly average stay
convenient parkingpotent mould
the parking was available and close to the entrance.
The mould smell was quite potent. I was greeted by it as soon as i walked through the entrance (it really did set the tone). i also found that the room had no soap, a quick run to the spar next door.
