Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Modern, tastefully decorated, good parking, lovely staff (Sunny was so helpful), very clean and warm.

Negative: I really like a bench, or a stool, in the bathroom to put clothes on in the bathroom - all this minimalism is not for me! We stayed two nights and would like a clothes horse to hang wet towels on - though we were given enough towels for both nights. The street signage was turned off too early, and we drove past without seeing the driveway.

Summary: Would defo visit again, but a bit more expensive than our usual.
