WiFi has decent connection and doesn’t ‘time out’. There’s tea and coffee facilities in the room and the breakfast was super! - lots of choice (our stay was during COVID so this was served to our table as opposed to the usual buffet style but we could still ask for all that we wanted and more). Parking was available on site which was perfect as we had driven there. Overall very reasonable price for the stay.
