This property is quite old and badly in need of refurbishment. The breakfast was excellent but the rooms and building itself are very dated. We stayed in Ryges at Gold Coat Airport last year which was excellent.

Disliked: Amenities
Room was clean, well presented, bed comfortable. The shower water was very hard to get to temperature and slow to come through. Breakfast was good however bacon was over cooked and dry. For price of breakfast coffee (even though not nice) should've been included. Plenty of nice coffee places nearby.
