+ Lovely staff who were really helpful and friendly
− The noise from the road at night. Single glazed sliding sash windows provided no sound insulation. There were people shouting, playing loud music in cars and beeping horns until 3.45am! When shown our room we asked why there were earplugs provided. We were told we wouldn’t need them as no disco that night. We did need them but they didn’t help much!
