Arrived early at 12:30pm. Under no circumstances can you access your room until 3:00pm. After badgering staff for 30 minutes after hotel room handover time, and their excuse that the housekeeper would not hand over room until clean, we need not have... read more

The accommodation was very run down and outdated.



Car parking very poor, only room for about eight cars at front of hotel. Never got a parking space throughout our stay, sometimes had to park three streets away.
