Everything as expected and was perfect for what we needed. Food was excellent value for money, only issue was a staffing problem which meant no dinners on the final night. Really good to let us bring in fish and chips and enjoy a Pint.

Location was awesome. It had both a kitchen and laundry which allowed for a chance from eating out as we were on a 1 month holiday. Very clean, also unexpected was the room tidying after first night.

Got to love it when a place outdoes its photos online, this is one of them. My room felt like a little suite and was just a regular double. Beautiful tub that I of course did not use. Easy walk to shops and restaurants and pleasant lovely staff.
