Lovely hotel, friendly staff, delicious...

Liked: Room was very comfortable and had everything I needed. The hotel is in an excellent position making it easy to walk from where I need to go with the bonus of a parking space to leave my car. Breakfast was delicious and filling.
Disliked: The room was a little noisy during the night with sounds from either the water or central heating systems. However I manage to sleep reasonably well only having a problem with it one night.

Exceptional

Liked: The room was perfect, and very comfortable. The bar was lovely, and the staff were all amazing!
Disliked: The tiniest negative feedback is that the 'house salad' ordered in the bar was minimal, with broccoli and mange tout missing (although mentioned on the menu), and the 'roasted' peppers and tomatoes were raw; but it was ok. When I asked for a second piece of toast for breakfast instead of an egg (to make it vegan), I was informed that this wasn't possible and that one piece of toast would cost me an extra £1.50. Having said that, all the other food we had at the hotel - bar and breakfast service - was excellent.

I stay here when I...

Liked: Staff are always helpful and the breakfast is cooked to order from 7am and your are within a short walk to a number of different restaurants for the evening and fancy something different. Parking is included which is great but the car park isn't that big so is some times full.
Disliked: It can be noisy if the guests above or to the side have decided to go out on the town and get back in fairly late, especially if they've lost their key which can happen, but they are usually dealt with pretty quickly.
