"We have travelled a great deal over the years and we've both stayed in many hotels. This was the best hotel I have stayed in for quietness, friendly staff and location. We had a 3 bed room which was large enough and surprisingly it had a fridge/freezer, sink, small cooker, plenty of cupboard space and very comfortable beds. The room was soundproofed and there were no disturbing sounds like banging doors and that annoying door click that many hotels have. Plenty of sleep was had by all. We couldn't have hoped for better."
