Apartment was clean and spacious exactly what we needed as a family of 4. There was a comprehensive folder of information in the apartment which was helpful. The apartment was within a 10-15 minute walk of the city centre attractions, free parking under the apartment was also what attracted us to book.

Got to the hotel after a long day and found out they didn’t have a room for us. They offered us a room up the street at the Grange Beauchamp. It took a while to set up the room as they needed to make it a four person room. They comped us free breakfast for the two mornings we were there which seemed fair. The location was nice and I’d stay there again.

We didn't receive a particularly warm welcome on arrival but bar and breakfast staff were friendly and helpful. The bedroom was basic but fine for a short stay and the bed was comfortable. However, the noise from the streets outside (all night) affected our sleep.
