The hotel was very clean and the room and corridors smelt nice! • The room was spacious. • Bed was very comfy • Bathroom was nice and the shower was powerful • Blackout curtains really were blackout 😅 probably a bit too dark as it makes you want to sleep for ages! • Breakfast was nice but bigger plates would be better so you didnt need separate plates for toast etc. • Staff were friendly • Very reasonably priced for room and breakfast, but bare in mind you have to pay for parking which is a bit pricey and drinks are quite expensive - we paid over £6 for two bottles of coke. Overall it was a nice stay! Would stay again if we were in the area!

Disappointing
Had my father stay here for one night. He got there late and we were going to pick him back up the next morning. He was told the room was ready when he checked in - it wasn't. So he had to spend a long time in a used room, calling the reception and repeatedly being told they'd get back to him in a minute. Each 15 minutes he'd have to call back and repeat. Eventually he was told that Lydia (the manager) was coming on and would help. The next time he'd call up he'd ask for Lydia. Who seemingly did not care. When he asked how long it'd be to get the room, "no idea" she'd curtly state. It was now into 11pm and he was tired. He was eventually escorted to a new room which was locked - occupied. While it was being sorted he was picked up by the lady he checked in with - Sierra. Apparently had only been there for 4 days. She kindly offered my dad a drink at the bar while they waited and was the only one there that showed some compassion and kindness. So thank you to Sierra, but otherwise I can't recommend this place even for a short only sleep stop like we had planned.

Good but has been better
Our stay was pleasant. Room was clean & beds were comfortable. Staff were friendly & helpful. Breakfast wasn’t as good as previous stays, as the hotel was full & there was a lot of queuing & they ran out of popular menu items which was disappointing.

Liked: Staff & service
The position is excellent for visiting family. The staff were friendly and helpful but training is needed resolving issues. We returned to our room on our final night and found that neither entry card worked. A new card was issued. We entered the room and it had not been serviced. When questioned about both issues, the staff instead owning them, suggested we had placed the cards close to our phones, which wipes the card memory. This was not the case. The room was not cleaned because we had hung a 'greener stay' card ond the door when we left. This was impossible because we did not have the green stay card, just the standard 'still in or clean my room. Whilst the staff were very friendly and helpful, they should understand that the customer should never ,at the outset, be at fault. This has made us reconsider changing our location when we visit family
