We had a two night stay. The hotel could do with some revamping, as some areas were looking a bit tired. The staff were really pleasant and helpful, and seemed to like working there. A great breakfast menu with food cooked to order, which was excellent. Dinner very good and served by knowledgeable and friendly staff. Our room was basic but comfortable and clean.
