The staff were so friendly and welcoming. I was staying there for one night due to work. My room was exceptionally clean and my bed was that comfortable that I really did not want to get up in the morning. Shower was lovely. I only drink decaf and the hotel was really accommodating in putting decaf drinks on my room. I loved the original window, black out curtains did exactly what they was supposed to do. I was gutted I only had one night there but will 100% book there again when staying in the area. Restaurant was also lovely, and the small breakfast was just as filling as a large one. A great stay and great experience 💖

Ideal for one night. Room was rather basic and dated, but comfortable. 45 minutes wait for breakfast but it was lovely. I'd stay here again
