Great Staff and Hotel in a Great Location
"The staff I came across during my stay couldn't have been friendlier, the room was nice and spacious with a lovely modern bathroom. The hotel had a real family vibe to it, I stay away for business a lot and it made a nice change to staying in the chain hotels"
