Good value for money, nothing amazing but if your looking for a place to get your head down that’s clean and cheap with pub grub on the doorstep it’s worth it. Close to all the attractions

Good but not great.

No lorne sausage or potato scones for breakfast, pancakes were rather stodgy but the welcome was warm. Don't expect table ordering for dinner and be prepared to queue as the restaurant does get very busy.
