    I was there for a three night stay. The hotel room was very dated, the bed mattress was lumpy and slightly uncomfortable but the room was very clean and warm. The shower in our room was inside the bath but amazing and wasn’t a problem for me but could be a bit slippery. The hotel is currently being renovated. The staff are pleasant and very helpful. The breakfast was spot on apart from the sausages, they wasn’t to my taste. Overall the hotel was clean, warm and in a nice town, if you like a quiet and peaceful holiday.
