Decent Breakfast, Some Disappointments
helpful peopleinsecure doorshower problem
All staff I spoke to were nice and very helpful people.
The room door felt insecure, which worried me a bit. the shower barely worked and only a drizzle of water came out. I was dissapointed by this.

the staff was helpful in settling me into my room. the room was tidy, clean, and comfy. i look forward to visiting again sometime. there was easy parking available too.
i found only one double socket in the room and it was already supplying power to both the tv and kettle. i suggest you bring a usb adaptor to charge your phone.
