Ideal stop off point on our journey whilst visiting friends. Unfortunately we were put in a room where the door fron the ground floor came uo to 1st floor and it banged very loudly everytime someone came upstairs. Needs some kind of insulation of stopper to prevent this. Otherwise great.

The room door was extremely difficult to open from the inside. It was a struggle for me in 215. Also, why isn't the light for the bathroom next to the bathroom door? Really inconvenient!!

Average
Misunderstanding with blue jays online check in. When u check in it looks like u can get £20 worth of food and drinks credit for £10. However this is not the case. It’s really confusing and needs to be worded better. The member of staff which we was talking about it with was quite rude and made us feel uncomfortable. Tbh I did think the deal was too good to be true anyway but just if the staff member would have been a bit more understanding it would have annoyed us as much. Food was poor quality. Didn’t sleep well as right next to the door for the stairs which didn’t have a soft close. Rest of the staff we encountered were good. And the room was decent enough for what we paid. On the plus side Croissants were really good at breakfast.
