It a very nice cosy place especially if you also want to take your family. The only thing I did not like or was not impressed with was it breakfast I was expecting a full English breakfast. They need to improve on their breakfast menu but everything was perfect.

A fairly comfortable stay. Nice double bed, kettle for coffee, spacious bathroom and shower. However, wifi didnt work, tv only had basic channels, and air quality in the room was poor despite me opening windows. The next morning i woke with a bad headache.
