Rooms were a little old fashioned in styling but were really good. Had decent shower pressure, shower is also massive but could do with a little more bathroom storage. Rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and enough space to move around. Got air conditioning and rooms are soundproofed. Barely heard any cars on the main road. Staff are absolutely lovely. Would definitely stay again
