On arrival found only one disabled parking bay which was already occupied by someone however staff managed parking near the entrance for easy accessibility. Got disabled accessible room luckily as one is already occupied and thanks to the helpful staff. The room was huge and comfortable to me with my wheelchair. Also had almost all accessible facilities in the bathroom also. Accessible toilets available in the hotel. Breakfast was good.
