The hotel rooms were comfortable and quiet, despite being connected to a pub and restaurant. They were spotlessly clean, though some minor maintenance is needed. The location was chilled and great for a relaxing stay, but noise from outside ventilation could be bothersome. We enjoyed the friendly and excellent service, making our experience fantastic. The dining was mostly first-class, except for some average moments. Overall, a good value for money stay with a few minor drawbacks.
