Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: - I was very glad to get a ground floor room as I have trouble with stairs. The room was modern and clean. - The lady in reception was very friendly.
Negative: - I didn't realise when I booked that it was all so tight and small. The shower was extremely small and didn't have much shower power so it was hard to feel clean after showering. - The double bed was quite narrow and the quilt was very warm. - there were very few breakfast choices. - no hotel parking, we were however lucky to find a parking nearby. - the handle on the entrance door was broken and that does not make for a good first impression.
Summary: Nice but very tight room and bathroom
