The cleanliness was excellent. Staff helpful, there but not intrusive. Very handy for amenities in Bristol city centre. The parking was a bit expensive and had gone up in price since we first stayed there. But, saying that i wouldn’t be without it as the car was safe and it was private and on the premises.
