Rebekah

The room was clean and the beds comfortable, although we would have preferred to have pillow cases in addition to the pillow protectors, to be applied to our pillows. The shower was too powerful to the point of being uncomfortable. However for our short stay the room had all we needed.

The property is in desperate need of a refurb. The member of staff l dealt with was absolutely lovely and very professional. The bed was comfortable and pillows nice with nice bed linen The large gap at foot of door to room let in so much light, found it difficult to sleep
