The room was very clean but found the bed too small and the pillows too firm, but nice quiet hotel. Not too pleased with the cooked breakfast as it wasn't that hot especially the scrambled egg which had a funny texture and no taste fried eggs would have been better. Expected to see a more professional serving area not the bay Marie's which looked like a temporary last minet adition to resturant. glad we didn't have dinner there

Wifi was great. Breakfast was foul. Parking scenario was dreadful and you have to pay. Ridiculous. Happy it was only one night and chose because of location. I won’t stay there again.
