Although parking cost about 20 a night there, its conveniently behind the hotel. fairly easy to walk to. Might be a bit far for anyone that has a disability. ...

If you go out dining, make sure you have ID with you. We didn't. We went to Howl at the Moon, and they wouldn't let us in. We are pensioners, so a bit of a farce, but told it was the rules of the house. We are from UK so not used to taking ID.

5/5 - Excellent
