Never again

Looked great at first. Travelled with my husband and 15 year old son. No barrel lock on bathroom door so couldn’t close it properly. Shower pressure was really bad, just a drizzle. The walls are paper thin and we could hear EVERYTHING the people next door were up to and it went on till the early hours.

NO ID NO ROOM!!!!!

Nearly never got booked in as we had no ID, after travelling 5 hours from Portsmouth very tired and with Motorway closed in the area just just booked but there was no mention of ID on booking and staff couldn’t give a toss. Luckily had a photo of driving licence on my phone and eventually go in then got upstairs and every foot step creaked the floor boards!!

Will give it a 4/5 and would stay again!

Room was comfortable with plenty of storage which was a bonus! Tv was great. Beds comfortable and bathroom was clean but there was no shower gel/hair wash in the container over the bath which posed a problem for me as I used soap for my hair, of which there was three soaps. The room was very cold until I discovered an electric heater on top of the wardrobe compartment. Overall it was good 👍 Can’t say about breakfast as we’ve not had it yet!

Not great but it did the job

I chose this hotel specifically because it had free parking and was close to the motorway - it was a one night stop-over to break up a long drive. The car parking was easy and free - just enter your reg at reception. There was no food service available that evening, which I think I'd read when I booked. The hotel reception is pleasant per the pictures, but beyond there it looks a bit more low budget. Our room looked like it had been recently decorated, and was clean, but felt quite basic. We could hear voices/conversations from the next room and hear plugs/switches being turned on and off - so not sound proofed. The shower over the bath-tub was warm but not great, and the flimsy bath tub felt like you were going to fall through it when you moved. That said, the room was warm and the neighbours weren't noisy so we had a good nights sleep. For the budget price that I paid, it was ok and did the job

The property was very easy to find. The Reception area inviting, clean and bright with a nice layout and comfortable seating. The Receptionist was very welcoming and friendly. Our room was of a good size, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good. Convenient parking and prices were reasonable. We would definitely return.

They are trying to get the place better. Very poor wifi and ridiculous plumbing issues were too much for me . I recently contacted to see if the issues had been resolved , the receptionist had no idea of the issues although he was one of the staff I spoke to. Manager not available and I was unable to call back . I was there for 5 nights, plenty of time to deal with issues .
