the staff was fantastic! they were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. the food was lovely too. evening meal was very good and the portions were generous.

My room was a little tight on space. It was adequate for one night though. breakfast could use more options. there was just one cereal choice. i prefer more variety.

central locationcomfortable bedfriendly staffsmall roomsmall showerlimited menu

I found the location central with available parking. The room had a comfortable bed, and I enjoyed the food very much. The staff were professional, friendly, efficient and helpful.

The room was quite small. I also found the shower area small. I often bumped my arms on the wall and shelves. The menu was not as good as previous years.
