i found the rooms nice and clean. the location was quiet. reception staff were friendly. the free parking was a great benefit.

There was no heating in the bathroom. It was freezing. the kettle had to be placed on the floor as there were few sockets near the shelf. the kettle itself was faulty, it didn't switch off after boiling.
