Clean and comfortable. Location is wonderful.

The corridors are narrow and lots or stairways to get to the new building.

"Very Good"

7.0

The setting is exceptional. Staff were helpful and we found lots of parking spaces which was great.

Ok then .so it's a mixed bag of decent decor & furnishings with some tiredness to other parts . Our patio door window was either really dirty or the glass had 'blown' which ruined the view. Our evening meal was lovely although took a very very long time to arrive .We are not impatient people at all but ended up chasing up, as thought we had truly been forgotten,😞 And a note to the manager, please, just sit on the terrace and look.up at the top windows , net curtains in several windows hanging down made the hotel look scruffy and could easily be sorted. Would I stay again,?. yes because the good outweighed the bad ☺️ .
