Breakfast was included, a plus. The lady at breakfast was helpful.
The evening staff were not cute! I found them quite unfriendly. The room lacked soundproofing, and noise from the bar was very noticeable. It stayed open until 1 am. This made it hard to sleep.

Lacey, Steve, and the team gave me a very friendly welcome. The room was super clean. It had tea and coffee facilities. I even found some nice biscuits. The evening meal offered good value. Breakfast had plenty of choice. I would stay there again on a future trip (I really mean it).
The sink in my bathroom was really tiny, something I noticed. I only had one towel provided. There was nowhere to store my bag in the room.
