"We had booked an en suite room (Rm8). The check in was easy and room although basic ie a d/bed (which was comfy enough) and large tv was clean as was bathroom. It had tea and coffee and it was quite quiet. Room was well heated. Only down sides were only 1 very flat pillow each which was not ideal for sleeping(we didn’t get back until near 11pm so nobody there)and shower hose stand was broken at top making it hard to shower without holding(left note). Both issues easily resolved and given price...
