Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Staff were excellent. Sadly let down by the room. Specifically on the rear side of the hotel (facing the main road). Large vents to let in cool freezing air which made the room cold and a small, ineffective electric heater in tge room. Used hairdryer to heat up. Also, lack of space in ensuite to put clean clothes, so placed these on floor... only to find fluff and dust on the clothing once on. Noise of road traffic was DOMINANT throughout the night. Im sure the car park side of the building would be better. Staff were very accommodating
