Good sized room, bed comfortable. Staff very friendly. Plenty parking. However I really think a 4 star hotel should have bottled water in the rooms and also biscuits to go with the tea/coffee.

Listed as a 4* hotel but yet small things like no tissues, hand cream or shower hats in the bathroom. Glasses not changed or fresh water on day 2 of our stay. The bed was just about made - the sheet wasn’t flatten so we had to make our own bed. Won’t be back - to dear for what you get.
