Basic but ok

Nice basic hotel, convenient location, friendly staff. Room was ok but small for a family of 4, there was a bit of rubbish in room under sofa bed and bathroom was dusty but it was ok. Beds were a bit uncomfy, especially sofabed as dipped at the end, alright for smaller children!

Slighty tired hotel, but excellent service

Really great staff. Never had poor service at a holiday inn. Kudos to a chirpy Ben on the morning shift. This is slightly dated hotel and the bathroom set up is unfriendly with a step into the bathroom and a huge step into the shower. The bed felt like a tiny double. It is conveniently located which is why it is so popular. Breakfast was a highlight, well laid out, plenty of space and fresh food

Friendly 24h customer service, but our whole room stank of blocked drainage. I don't know what they wash the bedding and towels in, but it felt like being in a chemical fire. Woke up with a tight chest. Couldn't wait to get out.

Overnight stay

Very comfortable room, huge bed and okay space for our dog. Breakfast was a little disappointing - no ready made porridge or fried eggs! Maybe it was because we were late getting there - it was 10am.

Overnight stay

Overnight stay to see daughter at uni, not much time spent in hotel, large bed, clean room, tv would have like two towels rather than share, body wash was dove so good. Breakfast wasn’t great but it filled a gap. Would I return, yes.
