The room was spacious, neat & clean & the reception staff were lovely. Unfortunately the room we had was right at the front of the inn on the main road & the traffic noise was quite bad till very late. But, it needn’t have mattered as the aircon was the noisiest I have ever heard & woke me up repeatedly, keeping me awake thoughout the night. As it was August, we really needed to leave it on & which, really shouldn’t have been a problem, I got 2 hours sleep, which before an early start for a long drive the next day, was less than ideal.
