The room was stated as a king size bed , however it seems it was two single beds pulled together which was very disappointing.

Great Stay
I wasn't expecting a lot as I'd booked a single room and it was quite cheap. On arrival the check in process was very easy exactly as per the instructions sent out. When I went into the room, Wow! I'd obviously been upgraded to a large room with king size bed rolltop bath and walk in shower. Pressure on the shower was also excellent. Room was spotlessly clean. With the ample free parking it was a perfect stay. When I'm back in the area this is the first place I'll be looking to stay

Beautiful building
Lovely hotel, my room was spacious, comfortable and very clean. Strange not having a reception but all the access codes worked although I had to chase them as they weren’t emailed to me as advised. The lady I spoke to was very helpful and sorted quickly. My room was at the back overlooking the garden so was very quiet.
