Really helpful, friendly staff - both in reception and the bar area. The room was very clean, and I felt safe there. Parking across the road was great as well.

Steve United Kingdom

Location. A short walk into town. Parking facility. In a public car park but one gets a hotel voucher to display in car. Always plenty of spaces. Well equipped room. Nicely decorated. Nice big movable tv. Large cupboard and plenty of drawer space. Two chairs to relax in. There is a lift if one can’t use stairs. Very friendly lady on reception with an easy manner to chat to.
