10/10 Exceptional

Great, quiet rooms, bed made every day, fresh towels every day. Room cleaned every day. Actually use bleach to clean the bathroom. This is how it should be. Most other hotels in the area think they doing you a favour if they give you one fresh towel in a week, or claim it it is for the environment not to clean your room every day. More like for their pockets.

Pretty basic. Both rooms were freezing when we arrived. Despite being booked the thermostat was at zero in both, not even a minimum temperature. It took hours for them to warm up. The room was a good size. Basic but had all you needed. It was clean enough. The mattress on the bed had lost all its bounce and was like a water bed every time you moved. not a great nights sleep. The staff were very nice

Won’t stay again, sorry staff you did your best

Food, staff, cleanliness were all good. The location very close to a roundabout on a major trunk road very very noisy. The whole place was tatty, stained seats in the dining room, torn carpet at the entrance, odds bits of poorly repaired items in the room, some bits not repaired. My mattress was far far far too soft and uncomfortable.
