"Lovely little hotel. Got a parking space straight away, a warm welcome, and the room was lovely and clean. Nice shower with lovely smelling body wash. Breakfast is available for an extra charge and there's a bar downstairs which serves evening meals. If all rooms had slow closing doors, I'd give an extra star. Was kept awake because of late night arrivers slamming doors. Be aware that the car park is open to anyone therefore spaces aren't guaranteed. Would stay in an IBIS again."
