Would happily stay here again :)

Great hotel on the outskirts of the city. Polite, friendly and helpful staff. Spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed. Currently has a Harvester for meals nearby, but this will close for two months from the end of March 2025 for complete refurbishment due to change of ownership to Miller & Carter brand.

Comfortable and cost effective

Overall, a very pleasant experience for an overnight stay of that price. The reception staff were friendly and helpful on my arrival as well as when I had an issue with my car tyre from 9pm to almost 1am- which was greatly appreciated. The lady at reception assured me that there was no issue if i was to have to leave my car for the day even after checkout. As for the condition of the room, overall this wasn't too bad, it just needs some TLC. The window frame had a smidge of black mould that you usually get, these would either need to be cleaned every so often or simply replaced. The bathroom needs a better finish but i put that down to poor tradesmen rather than the hotel itself. But overall the cleanliness of the room was quite pleasing. Would definitely come here again, just need to remember the electric heater is under the desk.

Nice rooms only downside was they dont clean under the beds noticed there was what looked like crushed pringles under the bed then while my 11 month old was on the floor he was pulling plastic and what looked like a small plastic drug bag out from underneath the bed other than that we enjoyed our stay and would stay again except perhaps bring a travel cot next time so were not worried what toddler will find other than that every where else appeared clean curtains did have about 10 holes in them so early morning looked like a ray of stars on the curtains the breaksfast which was included in the price was nice me and husband and kids enjoyed it

Freezer like room.

The room was nice and the staff were friendly. The only downer for me was that the room was like a freezer when I arrived around 17:00. I turned the heather on but it was so poor that it didn’t change anything for 3 hours. I then went to reception and asked for another heather to add. I played it in and switched it on but I couldn’t leave it on the touch the night as it was noisy. Since I checked out on the 28th of December, I got back home to London and I am still in bed with a terrible flu.
