The staff was very friendly. The breakfast included a wide selection of foods, all freshly cooked. Helen was wonderful! I appreciated the free bag storage after checkout, so I could explore without carrying my luggage. The hotel appears newly renovated. It looks clean and fresh.

The bar prices seemed high, I paid £14 for a G&T and a small red wine!
