Only stay if it’s your only option.

Had to pay for our own parking even though it’s a sign saying free parking. Bed very uncomfortable and hard. Not very clean. Very old and needs an upgrade. Only stayed there because we were tired. I will not stay there again.

Good for the price

Good for the price for 3 people. Old horrible carpets and the windows in the room need an upgrade. Breakfast choice was English breakfast only in the services upstairs, so if you prefer fruit and porridge like I was hoping for, bring your own.

The property emailed to ask for a second payment as they hadn’t received the money from Expedia, and then would refund us once Expedia had paid. The room smelt like smoke, windows didn’t shut properly so it was noisy and the bedside lights didn’t work
