decent stay overall

large room spacious bathroom nice staff old sofas mismatched furniture toilet smell

The room was large and spacious. i really liked the big bathroom. i found towels, a hair dryer, and an ironing board. Everything i needed was there. the staff were nice , i will say that much.

The reception area seemed like a place where old sofas are dumped , it really looked mismatched. i wouldn't want to sit on those sofas , honestly. as i walked in the front door , the smell from the toilets near the bar was not great. It just wasn't cute.

The location was ideal. It was only a short drive to my meeting. the evening meal was very tasty, and breakfast was also good.

My room was basic. There was a very tiny sink! there was nowhere to hang wet towels. limited space for my things existed. the loud music from the bar until 1 am was difficult. This happened once .
