The location was quite quiet, assuring a very good sleep.
The vat invoice never arrived after staff said they would post it. There was no plug for the sink. A shower mat was also missing.

The staff were amazing and helpful. I especially appreciated how dog-friendly the hotel is. My dog even got a sausage at breakfast. The food was also excellent. I chose the half board option (it was a good value for the money).
The bar had a slightly limited selection of draft drinks.
