I only stayed one night but there was nothing around in walking distance, the hotel was dated and did not reflect the photos. Didn't feel the cleanest. Didn't have much interaction with the staff so can't comment on that.

My room was modern, clean and a good size. The parking was easy and close to the entrance of the hotel. I ate in the restaurant on site ‘Ba’zaan’ and the menu was Indian Cuisine and honestly the best curry’s I have tasted in a while. Well done to the new owners and staff you have turned this hotel around from the previous owners.

On arrival was immediately asked for the £2.50 to have the car parked in an empty unmaintained Carpark, then to be told it was an alcohol free bar, (Hotels which don’t serve alcohol that’s a new one), Breakfast is £6 but all you get is a continental takeaway bag, it say’s from 7am but they turn everything on at 7 so you still waiting at 7:15, Wouldn’t recommend staying here
