Never again!

Full of women sat in their pj’s at breakfast swearing and spluttering. These are ladies that are homeless with their children and I feel for them but to be sat in the restaurant at breakfast in pj’s and loud and swearing and the lady who was the staff not polite either! Also immigrate staying here, nothing against them as they were more polite and quieter than the English homeless women and their children. I will never stay in a holiday inn again as breakfast was vile. The women and children using their hands in the shared cereals and swearing so loud! I was staying on a business trip and this was not what I was expecting at all!

Staff doing wonders under bad conditions

The staff were excellent, very helpful and attentive. Unfortunately the hotel is being used as an overflow for council houses, up until 11:15, until I complained to the management, kids and parents were making lots of noise and slamming doors all over the hotel. Mean I couldn’t get to sleep until after midnight by the time the commotion has subsided.

Toby’s carvery is just next door with excellently dining options. A bit far from city centre. But I assume you will have a car if staying here. Price is very reasonable.

Despite telling the hotel 2 weeks before arrival that we would be bringing our dog, we were given a room on the upper floor a long way from the stairs. Ate at the Toby Carvery next door. Big mistake, only the carvery was on offer and all the food was only lukewarm.
