We booked two budget rooms. For the price, it was a tidy and clean room but older in style and decor. Very good for one night.

Property is quite dated. Could do with an update. Paintwork, decor, technology and landscaping all need some attention. Bed was adequate but not as comfortable as many I have encountered. Value for money was ok and everything was clean and tiday.

My stay was a short one, overnight. My room was spacious and clean, with very modern fixtures and decor. I have stayed here about 15 years ago and found the refurbished rooms a delight. Will definitely stay here again.
