excellent breakfastclean decorationclean hotelparking issuedeposit requesttable space
the breakfast was fantastic i appreciated the choice of cereal, juice, and yoghurt. the full english breakfast tasted excellent. the hotel was very well decorated and very clean.
parking to the rear seemed spacious though some people did not park within the lines causing an issue. i think the hotel requesting a deposit is not a bad thing though. i wish there was more table space to sit and eat at.
