Our first stay; able to park underground on a Sunday so happy to pay for parking which felt very secure. Staff extremely helpful in ensuring that we took the correct route out of Swindon when leaving. Duty manager on our check in date helped us find a local pub for the Sunday football. He also provided a place to store luggage in the meantime. Good breakfast before we set off

Staff were great and lots of parking options. Could maybe do with a refresh, a couple of cracked tiles in bathroom. Breakfast is 6:30-9:45, I went down at 9:25 and there was no hot breakfast left just beans and scrambled eggs and everything that was out was cold. When I asked if they were replacing they said breakfast is almost over so no. They would have been better saying breakfast is served until 09:30 if they don’t want to replace it after that, also limited cold options, no muffins left, no cardboard cups for takeaway coffee
