My double room was a good size with a private bathroom, and i found it spotlessly clean. It was well laid out and comfortable. The room was also warm.

Though the kitchen was closed, the staff sorted food from a recommended takeaway! also breakfast was left in the room the night before. There are several local eateries within walking distance of the premises.
