"I had a very comfortable stay and enjoyed my stay. I booked a single room and would say it was a small double. Well furnished with good ensuite facilities. The hotel was clean and well managed, corridors to the rooms was a little tired in places, but public areas and bedrooms were immaculate. A good selection of continental and full English items available for self-service at breakfast. Friendly helpful staff throughout the hotel. I used the swimming pool and enjoyed an early morning swim, I didn't use the other spa facilities or the gym which appeared well equipped. Only on street parking available for which the hotel provided a parking disk which covered from check in to check out times. Definitely reccomend this hotel and look forward to staying here again"
