    The windows opened & we loved having some fresh air. Room was good-sized & bed was comfy. Overpriced, but then the dollar /pound rate sucked when we were there. We are not breakfast eaters so can't comment on the dining room. Great location.

    The location is very centrally located. I was concerned with noise due to the proximity, but it was not an issue. The staff were kind and the rooms were bigger than expected. Overall, the experience was good.
