Fine for a night. Room was sizable and the bed comfy. Staff friendly and helpful. Property tired and needs updating. Wide selection at breakfast, however the cooked food was inedible, and the area was small for the size of hotel. Very noisy outside the hotel at night. Location is 6 mins from central ...

The room was pristine and staff very professional and helpful. I would have liked more on offer for breakfast - maybe omelettes or full English - but that’s just a preference 😊

The breakfast menu was good with lots of choice. The waiting staff could have been friendlier, most seemed unwilling to make eye contact if you needed anything. We had two rooms, one was fine but the other had a damp smell. They were very clean rooms, but the condition were a bit tired.
