Overall it was an ok hotel. The location next to main rd and busy petrol station let's it down as it's an old building there's no sound proofing from the windows. The room also suffered noise from other rooms bathrooms backing on to it. I would specify a room that doesn't face the petrol forecourt if I stayed again. Continental breakfast Inc was ok.
