8/10 Good
"Staff was extremely helpful, was there for a wedding and needed a late check in. It was arranged without any difficulty. The room was small but clean, the electric fireplace was nice to sit in front of. The breakfast was really just coffee and cereal with some packaged pastries but that's fine. Overall would come again."
