Summary: The hotel is easy to find and has a decent sized car park at the rear of the building. The outside looks tatty and the adverts/awards in the windows are all dated. We checked in with no problems and the guy was very helpful although he wasn't based on site and closed reception as soon as we had our keys. This was unfortunate as once we got to the room we realised we didn't have the wifi code. The hotel number was permanently engaged and there was no sign of anyone on the ground floor. The room was clean, reasonably modern, spacious and had a desk for working. There was no internal lock or bolt on the door which was frustrating and there was also no pole to adjust the venetian blinds to close them, which meant we had daylight in the room at 4AM. On the plus side, we were on the second floor so could leave the windows open to get some cool night air in. Overall, a mixed stay at a reasonable price.

Summary: Comfort good enough, friendliness good enough but service at mealtimes leaves a lot to be desired. Had a dinner with our family which, despite us being the only ones there, took a long time ! Waiting 45-60 mins for meal to arrive is not acceptable. Breakfast next day was the same (and we never did get our cereal) Staffing levels need to be looked at.

Summary: Positives : lovely features , good size room , comfortable bed , nice table for working , comfortable arm chairs . Parking available. Negatives : not that we’re fat but a little tight getting into the shower. Some of the finishing / decorating in bathroom and crack repair in bedroom could be a lot neater . Very warm night and fan appreciated but a little squeaky !! We also struggled with door but think there’s a knack to it .
