Very helpful reception, clean room, great breakfast. The highlight however was sitting in the bar listening to a charming young Irish lad singing beautiful songs.
Good hotel, quick check-in and a decent room
The breakfast is quick and easy and a good choice on offer. Definitely suited our needs, would definitely recommend.
Very clean, hotel staff seemed friendly amongst themselves which transferred to the customers .Breakfast good quality . Bed was a bit hard for our liking .
Receptionist could not of been more helpful , super friendly, great local knowledgeable and so very helpful, the best check in we have ever had. Rooms were great, really peaceful, great nights sleep
Clean room, was overly warm when we got there but cooled down with the window open.
Breakfast was ok, hash browns overcooked milk in coffee tasted like long life.
The room was clean with basic amenities, and the bed was reasonably comfortable, though for someone used to sleeping on a very soft mattress, I found it a little firm for my tastes. There was a comprehensive selection for breakfast, which was pleasing to see. The quality was lacking, but given that it was included with the stay, I cannot complain too much. Overall, the value was superb.

The room was very clean, but cold, receptionist gave us another room as couldn’t get heating to work, had same problem with the next room. She couldn’t get it to work either but brought us a heater which warmed the room very quickly. She was very good & came back later to check it had warmed up. Would definitely recommend hotel to others
