Solid Choice for a Short Stay

easy access warm restaurant reasonable price varied menu

I appreciated the good motorway access and the inviting restaurant. The price was reasonable and the bar area felt warm. The menu had a good variety of choices and the overall atmosphere was positive.

I found the bathroom basin to be placed a little too high for comfortable use.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

elevator noise powdered eggs

The room was clean when I arrived, so I was happy about that.

The room was close to the elevator, and the noise kept me awake. I found hairs in the bathroom. The breakfast was not good. The eggs tasted like powder.
