7.8/10 Good! (1,000 reviews)

Nice rooms and the hotel was functional. Evening meal was disappointing and not many options so ended up ordering in for the second evening. Nice breakfast. Would stay again and overall good. The dinner let it down.

Very clean and comfortable, I’m not sure why I have to enter a rating for eco friendliness though. I haven’t got a clue what their policies are
