cute staff coffee maker

The location allowed for easy walks to various places. My room included a coffee maker that I found useful. I was so happy to find that the room was quite spacious. The staff WAS very cute and courteous.

The onsite parking spaces were a little tight for larger vehicles.

decent stay with a few issues

small room damp bathroom

the room was quite small (smaller than expected). i found the parking fee of £12 per day excessive. the bathroom lacked proper ventilation, so it became very damp quickly. the tv in the room did not work initially, a minor inconvenience though it was sorted out.

the tv in my room just didn't work which wasn't great, and the shower was more like a dribble than a proper shower, seriously, you could barely wash properly with the trickle.
