This place is great on the inside but the outside is terrible. There is just no kerb appeal. the whole of the exterior needs attention. If I was a passer by looking for a place, I probably would not give it a second look. It is only because of the internet and being able to see reviews and the interior that made it a choice. The parking is a rough area next to the hotel and limited to 6 cars at the most. However there is on street parking nearby between 6pm and 8am. Bed very comfortable and size room is great. The indian restaurant is great. Breakfast is a little limited but adequate if you do not expect too much choice. Overall I would still give it an 8 out of 10

Lovely hotel, great rooms, good staff, have stayed many times. I feel that i need to mention the lift it is old, slow and doesn’t work effectively. I was on the 3rd floor and could not get the lift to stop there, i would press the correct button and it would only go to 1st or 2nd floors and I'd walk up the stairs to get to my room, for people with mobility issues this could be a problem. I spoke to a couple who told me that they got stuck in it for a short period of time. It is a fantastic hotel and i will stay again but bare the lift in mind.

It was very noisy and there were young people outside shouting, playing loud music from their cars and fights were breaking out from the bars and pubs around us of which we didn’t know were around us.x The receptionist was quite abrupt and rude when we checked in and the next day when we went to breakfast she was there to check us in for breakfast and had the same attitude. Parking was ridiculous! It was a tiny triangle of concrete next to the hot that could fit about 3 cars. The best thing about our stay was the breakfast.

I found the hotel, very lapse and not up to date. Paint peeling, wood laminate separating, had to mend the shower hose/ head with elastic bands to be able to use it. Restaurant not open although stating on booking it was! Breakfast was small, greasy and un edible. Although coffee and toast was good. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!!

The rooms are beautiful clean modern well decorated and fresh. The breakfast is a complete letdown from the coffee machine to the cereal choices to the toaster. The cooked breakfast was cooked well but the choice of sausage was dreadful, clearly the value range. If I’d stayed more than one night I’d have gone out for breakfast and coffee. Oh and the tv didn’t work correctly. I’d stay again for the room and the value but go out for brekkie.

Bit of a joke, leak from the ceiling, no one to report it to & costs £20 extra for just one hour late check out when the cleaners hadn’t got there anyway. Hotels.com curlier service shocking, 2 hours on the phone with no answers so don’t think I’ll bother with either again.

The hotel was excellent but an especial thanks must go to the vary friendly and helpful staff. Maisy, the receptionist was charming. Her relief - I regret I cannot remember his name, also really pleasant. I had a tight schedule, needing to get to a school 10 minutes drive away, for 07.30. Breakfast started at 07.00. Not intending to stay, I popped in for a coffee at 07.00. Staff insisted in providing a cooked breakfast very quickly which they did. Pat on the back, please, to the owners/manager.
