All excellent following the refurb. Only constructive feedback we would give is if hotel not full and not too many for breakfast to serve this to order for the cooked items as ours were barely lukewarm. Am sure that could reduce wastage and so costs and customer satisfaction.

Over all nice place to stay. A little dated and a few cob Webs. Bed comfortable bathroom clean great shower bedroom nice and warm too warm turned the heating down. Limited evening menu but lots of bars and restaurants in the local area. Freshly cooked breakfast to order. I’m a light sleeper and they gave me a room to the back of the property which was ok however the window did not close tight enough so I could here traffic noise and the bin lorry Monday morning, however this did not make it a terrible or bad stay. Over all yes would stay again.
