I found ample parking near reception , made arrival easy. The recently refurbished room presented a restful, clean atmosphere with muted colors. Breakfast service was efficient and the restaurant offered a nice bright space to start the day. Staff promptly assisted with requests, specifically providing a soft pillow to suit my preference.
The supply of tea and coffee in the room felt a little sparse.

The staffs was very friendly. All of them. The breakfast had an excellent choice, and there was plenty of it. The park and ride is a short distance away from this location.
The room looked tired and worn. I asked for help with the heating dial. I was told the heating wasn't working, so I ask for another duvet, and I called the front desk multiple times, but no one answered.
