Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's convenient location, friendly and helpful staff, and generally comfortable rooms. Positive mentions included good parking, nice garden spaces, and a variety of breakfast options. However, several guests noted issues with room comfort such as poor heating, uncomfortable beds, and dated interiors. Cleanliness and maintenance were concerns for some, with complaints about showers, noisy plumbing, and worn furnishings. Despite these negatives, the overall service and atmosphere were well received, making it a decent value stay for many.
