Convenient and clean place. But staying on a Friday evening, the bedrooms are just above a loud pub that's open til 1am. (maybe non-weekend nights are better).

Lovely 2 night stay! Room was big, warm and comfortable with a king size bed.
Bathroom also big and spotless.
Breakfast was delicious with great choice of food.
Staff very friendly and, even though under pressure the first morning as so busy, remained calm and very friendly.
Would definitely stay again
