"Lovely friendly staff couldn’t do enough to look after us . Love that you can have a decanter of filtered water for free . Nice room with beautiful bathroom with a bath and a shower with a separate toilet ! Great toiletries too . So convenient to be right in the centre of the town . And lovely to have disabled parking too . With one of the lifts being a bit bigger it made life easy with our son’s wheelchair. We will definitely be back ."
