It was clean, good hosts, easy to find and in a great location you are on the doorstep of town. The breakfast was also very good.
The noise from the traffic due to being on the main road with no double glazing. The car park hard to reverse out of and was like parking in a dip. The colours in the room did not match but the most annoying thing was the pillows something not overally expensive to have to change they were very lumpy and flat as pankcakes.
