Feels a little tired
Conveniently located, being close to the M5 and a quick drive into the city centre.
Hotel is fine for a one night stay but lacks any facilities beyond the basic and feels a little tired. The double beds are small and not particularly comfortable and one pillow per person is insufficient, so had to ask for additional pillows.
On the plus side, the staff were friendly and the check-in and check-out process were efficient.

Basic but ok
Nice basic hotel, convenient location, friendly staff.
Room was ok but small for a family of 4, there was a bit of rubbish in room under sofa bed and bathroom was dusty but it was ok.
Beds were a bit uncomfy, especially sofabed as dipped at the end, alright for smaller children!
