It was very good value. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and wasn't "in your face" I thought the bedroom was good for its' size. The shower pressure was powerful and the room was warm. I didn't use the body/hair gel as I normally bring my own. HQ Bar is a very lovely reasonable priced stay

Very comfortable stay. Clean and spacious room. Well heated and with heated towel rail as well. Everything provided and room freshened daily. Shower cleanliness lost a star as drain had not been cleaned. Comfortable bed and pillows. Generous hospitality tray. Lovely staff. Helpful and hard working. Breakfast was 5 star. Vety generous and really well cooked. Amazing extensive choices. Wonderful. Extremely good hotel for the price range.
