Clean, modern, spacious.

The room was really lovely. Very spacious clean and modern. It had air con that kept our room a tad chilly BUT that was a plus point as been warm weather. If you hadnt wanted the air con on there was a pedestal fan so that would have been useful. There was really only a problem that the shower temp would not turn down. It was not an electric shower just one on a shower bar. It did also have a large shower head from ceiling but when i tried that to see if felt cooler as i was further from me the water pressure wasnt enough to wash my hair. I had to wash my hair and was crying doing it and used as little water as possible and held hose as far away as possible to make it manage. I have a hot tub and 40 degrees c is very pleasant this was far hotter. I had to get out shower to be able to wash my body. They had a lovely clean shiney mat for the shiney shower tray but not long enough to let you exit shower safe so i put a hand towel on tray so i could get out. I did feel that was a waste of a clean towel but was for safety reasons. The staff member on reception this morning was going to get the water temp looked at and she did seem to care that this had been an issue for us on this occasion. I would be happy to stay again if the water temp had been sorted.

We stayed here as playing at several golf courses in the area. The room was spacious and very comfortable bed with modern bathroom. Good value for money and pleasant bar in the evening. Only concern was safety of car park but that was just a feeling, nothing to back it up.

Perfect place to stay for a wedding

This was the perfect place to stay for a wedding, three of us shared a very spacious room with a double and a single in a completely different room which we didn’t expect. The value for money is brilliant, the duvet and pillows were super comfortable and felt like luxury for such a cheap price. Would 100% recommend this hotel. The staff were all so friendly too and the bar is 24 hours.

Ok hotell med parkering

Slitet hotell med stora rum. Rent och bra service, bekväma sängar. Ingen frukost men finns i närområdet. Dock saknades list i mitt en fönster = högt ljud fr puben mitt emot.
