Very basic accommodation. It was clean (though there was some litter outside). The interior of our room was tired with a need for updating. It also had a wet room shower and the curtain did little to keep the bathroom from getting wet.

Convenient position to attend a family gathering. Easy parking and spacious. Easy to book and reasonable rates for the room. Though a little dated, it was warm, comfortable and all you need for a short stay. Clean and good ventilation, everything you need. Friendly welcome and quiet setting. Great value and especially helpful if you have a car (there can be trouble finding car park if staying in city centre).
