Stayed during the heatwave and unfortunately no air conditioning, but they had placed a fan in the room. The stay was comfortable and the beds wonderful, but a couple of things needed doing ….like the broken window sash in the bathroom and somewhere to put soap next to the sink. A bin in the bathroom would be good too. Overall staff were friendly and it was clean and comfortable. The area was lovely and quiet too. Would stay again. ##### Sue Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicholas 17 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Enormous rooms, convenient location and friendly staff. ##### Nicholas Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rich 8 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely hotel.
