    The choices available were were wide and appetising to look at. However , I am a basic tea and toast man. My daughter booked the hotel reservation for me and I was expecting a modern, factory style hotel. I walked passed the hotel several times...

    Great location. It was understandably expensive for what it was because it was during the festival. However, I thought the staff were excellent. Really helpful and accommodating. I also thought the free breakfast was an excellent offering.
