Superb hotel
I was attending an event at the hotel and decided to stay overnight, rather than face a late night drive home.
All the staff members I interacted with were extremely helpful, friendly and very professional.
My room was on the ground floor and was superb. The bed was so comfortable. The room was large and very well decorated and very clean and tidy, I had a cooked breakfast the following morning and this was excellent.

2nd time staying here and was disappointed, thought the girl on the front desk was very good and the room itself was decent but WiFi and phone coverage were awful.
Might have been a different experience if I wasn’t staying for work but unfortunately that was the case. WiFi crashed multiple times, couldn’t hotspot as my phone signal was “E” or “3G” at the best of times.
Breakfast wasn’t great, servers didn’t come near me for ordering hot food off the menu.

Good overall hotel, good food, and the staff are friendly.
The bed was dreadfull, 2 single beds pushed together, which is a big no for me, very hard and you'd feel the gap in the middle.
