Same suite as before. The gym was a converted room with some dumbells, a rowing machine and an old treadmill but it got the job done. Good night's sleep. Fantastic shower more akin to a water massage and a good breakfast to start the day.

Lovely lobby area. Nice suite room though the "king" bed was two singles pushed together which left a delve in the middle. Shower was not great. Breakfast was pretty good and parking was ample

Lovely staff. Some of the rooms could do with a little attention (beside lights and curtain repair) but overall a lovely friendly hotel. Would stay again and would recommend to others.
