Delightful spot to rest and relax!

Nice clean room, was upgraded to an Executive room which was a nice bonus. No air conditioning and it was extremely warm in the room. A fan was provided. Reception gracefully gave us 2 jugs of milk for tea and were as kind and courteous as always! Bathroom was stocked with towels, shower gel and some lotions and a bar of hand soap. There was a breakfast option for £13.50, which we chose not to have this time. Check out was a simple card drop box. We greatly enjoyed our stay!

Good location for the Utilia Arena, 15 mins walk. Friendly check in, good sized clean room. Breakfast staff were very polite, food was excellent, good choice, cooked properly with everything available. Only downside was not being able to open the windows, fan helped, it was very hot!
