Very clean but slightly tired room. All staff excellent. Great cooked to order breakfast as well as great lunch and great dinner - you can tell that quality ingredients are used and prepared/cooked by competent chef and team. Bar adequately stocked and reasonable prices for hotel. Overall good value ...
