fantastic stay

i found the staff superb and helpful. breakfast was tasty with many choices. free parking at the rear of the building was an added benefit.
i noticed the bar closed early in the evenings. i think some later serving hours would improve the atmosphere.

restrictive hourschipped tiles
The serving hours felt quite restrictive, especially given the time of year. To stop serving drinks at the pub by 9 PM felt strange. My room lacked a proper seating area. I found this inconvenient when I wanted to relax with a drink away from the public areas. The wallpaper was faded and the bathroom showed signs of wear with chipped tiles.
