If you stay here make sure not to have a room over the bar. Our room was quiet but others in our group said it was very loud. Staff was great, food was so so. Overall I would rate it a 7.

Room was clean and there were shops nearby. Only complaint is that the pub had music/bass shaking the walls until the early hours. I should have done more research so that is my issue.

Room was very clearly not cleaned when I entered. Be aware that there is hardly any parking and it was all taken up by the guests at the restaurant
