10/10 Excellent
"Lovely stay. Staff were always attentive and helpful. Room was large, bed was super-king plus comfortable rollaway for our daughter. Aircon was perfect. Hot and cold breakfast included with our rate which made a tasty start to the day. On the last morning we got a Bon Voyage slice of cake at breakfast 🙂."
