The staff members were quite helpful. I appreciated the cleanliness of the rooms. Breakfast was nice and offered decent variety.
The room was a bit smaller than expected. I found the noise levels from nearby traffic disruptive. The television was small , and channels were limited.

Excellent Stay for a Motorbike Tour
great storage comfortable bed quick service
The room had great storage for my motorbike gear. The shower was good and the bed was really comfortable (I slept like a log!). The breakfast was of great quality and I appreciated the quick service.
The allocated car parking is sometimes full. It can be difficult to find a space, especially when the pub is busy. Some motorcyclists had to move their bikes around to make room.
