The double room was a good size but the beds definitely need the mattresses changed. Huge dip right down the middle. Staff was very nice but unless you buy the full breakfast couldn’t just get a cup of coffee in the morning.

The stay was very pleasant; the room was spacious, beautiful, and bright. The bed was very comfortable. It was nice to find a kettle and cups to make tea, along with some typical biscuits. The only thing that could be improved is the cleanliness, but overall, it was excellent.

We stayed for 4 nights.
The room was not cleaned during our stay.
When I asked at the front desk, I was told that housekeeping did not clean a room unless we stay for 1 week! We had to go to the desk to ask for coffee, sugar, milk and toilet roll.
