Room and bed comfortable, clean, spacious, nice large TV. Little things need attention. No milk in fridge for tea/coffee facilities.; one set of cutlery in paper, taken first day and not replaced. Hard to spread butter on toast with only teaspoon left in room. complementary drink card only for one person in double room and only for glass of beer on tap not a wine or soft drink as told. Squeeze soup dispenser maybe messy and unhygienic. Other then these little things all-round on par with other accommodation in area and within distance to hospital and shops.

The service was exceptional. Very accommodating. Coin laundry onsite. It’s old style but clean. Bed was very “bouncy” and large, thick pillows.
