“The room in the property was very nice, modern and clean. There were adequate facilities ( although I did not make use of the kitchen ), including washing machine and dryer which was convenient for mid trip laundry. I had a car, and had originally arranged parking. However on arrival the friendly receptionist recommended parking on the street overnight to avoid the cost. Also the parking is on a lift system, so more convenient to not be in their car park ( you may have to wait a few minutes for them to retrieve your car, not a problem just a little more hassle ). At the time of my stay parking was free after 3pm, and parking restrictions don't apply overnight ( you'll need to move it by I think 9am however ).”
