Not impressed
Noisy location with a lot of noise outside at the weekend and youths shouting at each other when the bars in the surrounding area close. Very poor quality breakfast, the bacon and sausage were over cooked - perhaps even deep fried. The room was okay but tired and not worth what we were charged in mid January (off season).

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Good location close to main street with shops and restaurants, except for no parking. Property was a disappointment. Bed uncomfortable. Very small room and bathroom. Dreary and dated furnishings; not updated. No common area on the property to sit and relax. Pub on property nothing special and was closed some of the time. Breakfast was a very poor buffet- packaged pastries that would probably be likely to be found in a gas station mini market. Not a pleasant setting either. Hotel was overpriced for what it was.

The Hotel was ideal for our requirements. An area that was open for morning/afternoon coffees etc would have enhanced the facilities.

Well established Hotel
Hotel was typical of most hotels and pubs/restaurants in the area . Everything seemed old but worked fine. Comfortable bed and a decent shower. Plenty of tea and coffee in the room and good selection of biscuits. Never ate there but the bar was good and the the barmaid was friendly unlike the reception who I think was having a very busy day when we arrived. Short walk into town.
