This was a welcome addition. the location worked well for exploring the town and the staff offered a super friendly welcome. i parked behind the hotel without issue. breakfast was nice.

i found the rooms provided all necessary amenities for a short stay. plant-based milk was a good option for cereals. i thought the staff were lovely and helpful too. they even prepared food for my friends and me after the kitchen had closed, a gesture i really appreciated.
The towels seemed a bit old and faded. they were clean.

Decent stay

warm welcomefriendly stafffull englishrubbish areaunsigned car parkdifficult access
The team gave me a lovely warm welcome when I got there. I arrived around 2:30 PM. A young lady showed me to my room. The breakfast included cereal and a nice full English.
It was difficult to find the place. I didn't see a signed car park. The car park area was filled with rubbish so it looks not very clean.
