I was greeted by a friendly owner/receptionist. Check in was easy. The room was spotless and bed comfortable. Breakfast was simple but tasty. The only slight down side was weak shower pressure, but that was made up for by a deep bath.

The room was a little dated especially as it didn’t look anything like the picture on the website and for £156 for 1 night I expected a little more especially as we could have booked the same room the day before for half the price. Unfortunately even though we have stayed before I was disappointed and we won’t be staying again.

Hotel staff was excellent, warm, and friendly. He went out of his way to make sure we we comfortable. Location is a walk to Cantebury but is in a quieter area. Rooms were clean and well kept, breakfast was well done. Parking lot is small but very well maintained.
