The staff were fantastic from providing advice on places to visit to making gluton free food. The breakfast was lovely. The bed was really comfortable and had a good night's sleep, but some of the decor and furniture could do with updating

7.50 for a jug (1litre) of cordial and water. Asked several times to clarify the price and the manager said that was the going rate. Also 1.60 for a pint of cordial and water - go figure. Terrible customer service for an otherwise pleasant stay. Sort it out Abbotsford!

Staff excellent room was good chairs were well worn out, furniture the same, bathroom was modern and nice walk in shower, bed was comfy. I've had literally hundreds of cooked breakfasts and this was definitely in the top 5 in my opinion. A hotel needs to serve a good cooked breakfast.i would recommend this place and I'll return.
