Great location. Expected to pay for car parking so can’t complain. Breakfast was average. Didn’t like the fact that you had to play to use the pool. But would stay again for a stop over.

At one £193.94 it was a lot more expensive than it usually is, particularly as there was nothing special on in the city and charging £10 to use the pool on top of that is a joke
