Good facilities

Well set-up and comfortable. Good kitchen. Only improvement could be having a "recyclables" bin and not changing bathroom towels (daily) when they were hanging up (the usual standard is only replacement when left on the floor).

Very spacious and comfortable place to stay. The managers were very accommodating when I had to extend my stay 1 night due to road closures. They were fully booked but managed to keep me in. Lovely housekeeping staff too.
