There is free parking available which simplifies arrival and departure. It is a definite bonus. Access avoiding the bar was convenient, and this allows for quieter entry and exit. The car park had ample space.

The location offers easy access to attractions in the area. Riverside with numerous restaurants and entertainment options is a 15-minute walk. The cathedral is accessible within a 20-minute walk, so EVERYTHING is very convenient.

Breakfast was excellent. I could choose what i wanted, and the food was cooked perfectly. A home cooked breakfast made the start of the day especially enjoyable! The variety of choices was also a HIGH point.
