"Free parking at the hotel and only 20 minutes from the city centre. Nice seating area near bar and once parked and registration entered could come and go from the car park. Staff pleasant. Couldn’t really fault anything. Had a great nights sleep. Only downside if any was that there was only one pillow each but I’m sure if we’d asked they’d have given us another."
