    Did not like breakfast. Poor, thinnest white sliced bread toast, no offer of brown. Smoked salmon and scrambled was a whole pack of salmon. No one needs that much. Returned most of it. Generally ok, but would not repeat stay.

    Great host. Clean, comfortable and had everything I needed for a couple of nights away from home for work. I usually stay in a Premier Inn but this came up as closer so decided on a break from the norm! Quiet cul-de-sac location. Great shower. Parking right outside. Made a world of difference to have a kitchenette.
