Liked:Great location. Although it’s small, all facilities you reasonably need for a short trip are provided.

Disliked:I’ll preface this by saying the hotel manager was very friendly and receptive to this issue and investigated it asap, however, I smelt a strong unpleasant smell in my room. At first, it was of cleaning agents as you might expect but much later smelt strongly of urine. They couldn’t identify the smell themselves so couldn’t act upon it, but it really ruined my stay. I hate leaving negative feedback but wanted to put this up for others who might experience the same issue.

Liked:Bit confusing which room to take until I got a message sometime after booking. Perhaps because my wife, who booked, took a while to send it on. So another guest let me in before I had the entry details.
