The hotel's location is convenient, situated just outside the clean air zone. I found parking to be very convenient. The room had secondary glazing, so it was very quiet. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

Acceptable, but some issues need attention
high quality foodexcessive heatpoor insulation
The breakfast food tasted of HIGH quality and seemed well prepared.
The heat in my room was excessive. I turned the radiator off. I also left the window open a foot ALL day and night. Noise insulation was poor. I could hear people walking in the room above mine and vice versa. The loo seat also seemed ill-fitting.
