Our stay had its ups and downs. While we appreciated the friendly attitudes of the staff and the comfortable feel of the spaces, some aspects fell short. The dining experience was disappointing, and the rooms, despite being clean, felt outdated. Still, there's potential for improvement if the management addresses these issues.

My experience at this hotel was quite disappointing overall. There were several setbacks, particularly with the service and dining that left much to be desired.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, appreciating the friendly staff and the cleanliness of the place. The room was small but well-decorated, and the location was perfect for our outings to the moors.

Overall, it was a reasonable experience, but there were certainly areas for improvement.
