Perfectly good stay

Really lovely and helpful service. They were quick to find a better single bed when we asked as the original was soooooo soft it bent in half. Nowhere to hang towels but they quickly ensured we had clean ones each day to compromise. Good amenities but tired (remote control batteries held in with tape, cupboard door’s that don’t shut). Very handy location. Overall, it was about right for the price we paid.
