Verified traveler

Disliked: Room comfort
The stay was fairly reasonable value, but I found it a bit too noisy. I was quite disappointed that the hotel had changed breakfast times to 9am-10am, but didn’t inform me about this - that hour for breakfast is much too late.

I would visit again.
I met four staff during my trip and they were all first rate, friendly and helpful. I found the room too warm, I turned down the radiator but the room retained the heat. I was able to park on the premises but spaces are very few. There is a very close nearby free car park.
