Very clean room and good breakfast options.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean and newly refurbished room. Great location. Breakfast has a wider variety of items on a Friday and Saturday - less so the rest of the week. Staff are very pleasant and helpful. Really pleased we chose to stay here. The rating for eco-friendliness is lower as many breakfast items are single use and throw-away; however, that seems to be the norm on our trip with one exception
