a fairly good stay

friendly stafffree parkingsmall roombuilding site
the staff were really lovely! it was nice to have the bar downstairs for a drink. the car park was basically empty the whole time! we were allowed to leave it there even after checking out!
The twin room was very small. the shower door was only attached by one hinge. That was not very safe! the grounds of the hotel looked like a building site. dog excrement was everywhere on the grounds.
