    Great location with the added bonus of parking. Very clean and well presented. After realising I had the room at the front I was worried about noise, having read previous comments, however I didn't hear the road once and had the best night's sleep...

    Loved the style of the room. The bed was so soft and comfortable. Easy check in and I loved the fridge at the entrance for the guests to use to store their drinks and food.

    The hotel was very clean and in an excellent location – close to the centre yet quiet. The staff were extremely helpful, and it was a big plus to have parking available. The continental breakfast was also very good.

    This was by far the best place we've stayed so far in the UK. Although the room was small it was immaculately clean, with all the things required for comfort. This room was in the back corner of the building so wonderfully quiet and peaceful at...
