Ian on the front desk was lovely, attentive and helped us with extra amenities plus directions for dinner. If i could him 5* alone i would. The bed was too hard for us. Breakfast was okay but cant complain when its free. Location is great. Parking a little expensive £16 for 24hrs

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Well positioned for town centre. One lift out of two was out of order. TV didn't work. skirting boards had damp rot. Dining room was chaotic with nowhere to sit for breakfast, and is clearly inadequate for the size of the hotel. Staff seemed to be going through the motions and didn't really seem to engage with customers. English breakfast was self service, with the usual cold baked beans and leather like bacon. Room was stiflingly hot despite turning the heating right down. On the plus side, I did however have a quiet nights sleep.
