Our only complaint is our showers were all only luke warm. When we exited the shower we had to turn the heater on to warm up before dressing. Also having reception closed at check out time ensures you can't be told of any issues hence this review which I hate to do.

Had 2 x staff members stay for the night who said it was clean and tidy, in a good location, staff were friendly, but the beds were uncomfortable and the WiFi wasn't any good for working until 10pm (maybe when everyone else got off it).
