Always very welcoming. Staff are brilliant

8/10 Very good

This hotel was in a quiet location. The staff were really helpful. There wasn't a fridge in the room and I had some medication that needed storing in the fridge, so they stored it in the kitchen fridge and bought it to metas required.. The decor is a little 'tired' but it wasn't a problem. Air conditioning was not available but the windows opened quite far, which helped.
