good selectioncorner unit
Breakfast was lovely. It offered a good selection of items.
The bathroom was a bit small, I felt cramped. The shower was a corner unit. There wasn't much room to move around in there, I EXPECTED more space. It made getting ready a little difficult.

Acceptable stay with some issues.

good bacontired decorsmall bathroom
The breakfast was good. They certainly didn't skimp on the bacon!
The room looked rather tired. I suspect the decor hadn't been updated in years. The bathroom was also quite small. I found the lack of bar facilities disappointing. I really wanted a drink after a day of sightseeing.
