Comfortable and Convenient Stay

friendly staffamazing showergrim exterior
The staff were friendly and helpful. The continental breakfast included good quality produce and branded cereals. Sourdough was a huge hit with my son. The shower provided an amazing experience and the beds were really comfy.
The outside had a filthy dirty and grim exterior. It is right next to the motorway and gives a bad impression.

friendly receptionistlow toilet
The lady at reception was wonderful. nothing was too much trouble. She was friendly.
The toilet was very low, like a squatting toilet. it was also located in a cupboard. it was impossible to get into the shower without water going everywhere. You had to get in before turning it on.
