Definitely recommend!
Staff v friendly. Room v clean. More staff needed at busy breakfast time as tables needed cleaning and drinks area needed tidying but staff were doing their best. Maybe better choice of eggs (eg fried) not just scrambled. Room was comfortable and serviced well daily. Maybe bottle of water in room would be good. Plenty of parking and v good value for money. Definitely recommend and use again.
