clean roomfriendly staffgood breakfastmisleading listinglimited parkingbarking dogs
The room was clean and good. The staff was friendly. The gentleman during breakfast was great all in all IT was really good.
The listing states there is free parking. There are only three spaces for at least ten rooms plus pub customers. It's misleading also there is very little chance of a space being available elsewhere. The area is full of hotels. Dogs were barking throughout the night.
