Decor was a little outdated but the room was very clean. Room amenities also very good and staff were most courteous and helpful. Only negative was some noise from the retaurant/bar next door but it was a Friday & Saturday night stay so to be expected, band stopped abruptly at 10pm and so relatively quiet after that.
