Dogs barking at all hours of the day. Nowhere on Expedia indicates that is a pet friendly hotel. We changed rooms twice and twice the room next to us there were dogs barking. So, think about it before booking if you are looking for a quite time !

Great room. Spacious and spotlessly clean. The staff were all great and helpful. Best breakfast (included in the price) that I’ve had in a hotel for years. Dinner at the bar was fantastic too. I would definitely stay here again.
