I had my wedding reception in this hotel in 1985. It still has the same decor in 2024! Great staff and a popular bar, but little physical investment.

Overall a really good stay, room was a decent size along with the bathroom. Would definitely recommend. My only criticism is that the bed was 2 singles joined together however a caster was missing off one the bed causing it to be slightly lower than the other. There are no chargers near the bed which was strange.
