excellent location and practical amenities

central location ample parking
the location is superb with only a five minute walk into the town centre. plenty of parking is available which i found very useful. the staff were friendly and check in was straightforward. the room was spacious and clean.
i experienced a slight inconvenience during check-in. despite arriving shortly after the stated check-in time my room was not immediately ready. this required a brief wait which was not ideal after a long journey.
