Very good
Anonymous, Apr 2017
Pros (+) The room was lovely and the bathroom. Big an spacious
Cons (-) Room was very hot. Very dirty carpet when sitting at a corner table in the bar with a lovely view. Could have down with just a quick Hoover of all the crumbs on the floor left from previous customers ...carpet was dark purple so it really showed the mess
