Travel Purpose: business
Positive: perfect location easy bus route into city, the room was a good size and clean, nice to be able to open windows for fresh air. bathroom was also a good size with good shower.
Negative: the breakfast was a bit varied each day in terms of quality, first day was dry and overcooked but other days was fine although varied in size/amount. We ate in the bar one evening and the food was very nice.
Summary: perfect location and welcoming and friendly staff made this a great choice for us
