The property was clean and today, large rooms which were great. The problem is the smell in the room was very musty and strong. The other thing is the noise from the cafe next door went pretty late

Nice and clean and comfortable but just missing the little details- booking said bath/shower combination but there were no taps to fill the bath; just a shower head. Struggled to fill the kettle with the sink so small and TV unpredictable.

The lady at the reception and the bar staff were great. Breakfast room service was great and incredible portion sizes. Well worth the price. A real shame that it is shut on a Sunday. House keeping were asked to come back as my partner was getting changed. That did not come back that day, nor the next. 3 day stay and no freshen up.
