It could do with a slight renovation. The paint was peeling in the bathroom, some mould was present on the bathroom ceiling. Unfortunately, there were 2 separate taps in the bathroom basin and kitchen sink, one for hot water and one for cold. So you can’t really wash your hands in warm water unless you plug the sink up and mix the water in there. They did say it was going to be replaced soon so it might be done the next time we go there. Overall, we liked the room as it was large and clean. Heating in the room was good too. Laundry facilities were available. Good location if you have a car. Good food across the road. The taps were the only bugbear. We would stay there again when the tapware is replaced.

Everything was of a high standard which was reflected in the fact it was full every night of our stay. The staff were friendly and helpful and the facilities modern and very comfortable. There are plenty of outside sitting and a modern bright and fresh atmosphere.Checking in and out was easy and straightforward. Above all scrupulously clean and well maintained. Will not hesitate to stay again.

Everything we needed!
We had 2 2-bedroom suites with kitchen, dining and living room area. The bedrooms included a queen and a twin, and 2 twins. This worked out great for us! We had 4 little kids and 4 adults and we had plenty of room and cooked our own meals. Only 10 min walk to a big playground which the kids loved! Definitely stay here!
