Rooms are upstairs and quite a walk from the car park. You're better off trying to get a park out the front and then moving your car. Our room was clean and comfortable but on the small side. There was only enough room to open the door beside the bed and, as it was hinged on the left as you go on, it was a Tetris game getting in and out with bags. The Bistro was closed so can't comment on the food however the staff at the bar and at check-in were very friendly and helpful. Whilst all this might sound a bit negative, once in the room we were comfortable and had a great nights sleep.
