the bathroom included excellent lighting and convenient plug switches beside the bed. i found the sockets with usb ports very useful. i liked the spacious family room with a double bed and two singles. a fridge, microwave, and hot plate. it was a very spacious, i did not feel squeezed in at all.
i noticed limited parking spaces were available so i parked on the road. some signage indicates limited times.

the venue provided a very large clean room. it also features an equally large ensuite and a huge shower cubicle. the location provided easy access to pubs and places to eat, a short walk over the bridge.
