english option charging point towel radiator far location car park uncomfortable bed
The breakfast was good , with a full English option available. The room featured USB charging points. A towel radiator was in the bathroom , and it helped dry our towels.
The location felt a bit far from other places I wanted to visit. There was a puddle near the rooms in the car park after it rained. The bed was not very comfortable.

The evening meal AND breakfast were both very generous. The staff were friendly. Easy parking was AVAILABLE (so convenient!). I had a clean, good-sized room.
The location felt a bit far from where i needed to be. I thought it looked unkempt around the rooms located in the car park. There was a large puddle to navigate to reach my room after rain.
