The room had large windows and high ceilings. The bed was very large. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was superb.

The car park requires descending stone steps then metal steps to reach the road. Rooms at the front suffer from significant traffic noise early in the morning. The menu lacked healthy options.
