Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel was clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided a good level of choice and was tasty. The only downside for us was that there was a high level of noise from a band (I assume) playing in the bar downstairs which we found irritating when trying to settle down to sleep. Otherwise we were very happy with the hotel.
