Staff were excellent room was tidy and clean breakfast was fine. Only issue was the hotel was full of immigrants. I will never stay in a holiday in again. Had we been told that there would be immigrants in the hotel we would have stayed somewhere else. We were made to feel we didn’t belong there that we were somehow intruding. I will never stay in another Holiday Inn.

Never again!

Full of women sat in their pj’s at breakfast swearing and spluttering. These are ladies that are homeless with their children and I feel for them but to be sat in the restaurant at breakfast in pj’s and loud and swearing and the lady who was the staff not polite either! Also immigrate staying here, nothing against them as they were more polite and quieter than the English homeless women and their children. I will never stay in a holiday inn again as breakfast was vile. The women and children using their hands in the shared cereals and swearing so loud! I was staying on a business trip and this was not what I was expecting at all!

Staff doing wonders under bad conditions

The staff were excellent, very helpful and attentive. Unfortunately the hotel is being used as an overflow for council houses, up until 11:15, until I complained to the management, kids and parents were making lots of noise and slamming doors all over the hotel. Mean I couldn’t get to sleep until after midnight by the time the commotion has subsided.
