8/10 Good

Friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. Didn't try the evening meal offerings as there is a good variety of restaurants nearby, but the breakfast was good. The room was clean and well equipped but a bit stuffy in the summer heat. Would stay there again next time I have work in the area.

RENE, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Overall the hotel is good. A lot of interior work is needed in the bathrooms. Everywhere else spotless, staff very pleasant and helpful. First downside was the bathrooms were grubby/dirty and needed a good clean and vents replacing. Other downside is the beds are VERY firm and I’d say 3/4 - double so very small and not a very good nights sleep.
Rebecca, 2-night trip

Poppy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The hotel is convenient to get to the town centre with just a short walk. Staff are helpful and pleasant. Only downside was a car alarm going off for an hour or so, but was no fault of the hotel. I believe they contacted the owner of the vehicle. The only thing I think would have improved my stay would’ve been some air conditioning. It was exceptionally hot, but I guess we don’t have that many days in the U.K. where it’s unbearable.
