Staff were very friendly and helpful. I understand they don’t set the rates. But at £90 (including discount) it cost a pound extra than the room I regularly use in nearby Shipley, which isn’t exactly the Ritz, but it’s miles ahead of this.

Spotless

The room was vast, spacious and comfortable. Absolutely spotless and immaculate. Very comfortable bed. I slept really well. No breakfast supplied on Saturdays except for Light Breakfast on-the-go at £4, which was adequate and reasonable value. Sunday cooked breakfast not served until 9.30 which was too late for me.
