Reasonable budget hotel for breaking a journey North or South. Easy access in or out via service road if needed. Pleasant and friendly staff on front desk. Pet friendly but fee per dog at £15 was not advertised and much higher than expected. Noise from motorway evident but not excessive. Didnt try breakfast. Mattresses medium soft. Road chef and costa coffee close by.

Budget hotel but the best you could expect for the low price. Very good size room and good shower. Bit of a creaky floorboard above when people walked on it!

The property is a hotel at a service station on the M1. It cost me £45 for a night, so I really can’t complain. It’s basic, but has everything you would need for a quick stop off to break up a drive. No frills but reception lady was lovely and friendly.
