good sizeexcellent showergreat facilitiesexpensive car parknoisy suitestraffic noise
the room was the standard double room! i found it to be a good size and the bathroom had an excellent shower. i liked that the hotel had great facilities and views. breakfast was also good, i enjoyed the variety!
The car park cost me gbp 27 i believe. it was quite annoying. i could have found free parking outside with a bit of patience, but i did not want to bother. the annexe suites are little houses. These were noisy because of traffic on one side and the car park on the other.
