Hotel is a bit run down so could do with some funds to improve thrown it’s way.. it is clean tho so don’t let that put you off. Staff are awesome.. nothing is too much for them. Always polite and happy to help. Bed on this occasion was like a stone.. usually ok.. pillows too were all thick and hard. Some may like this so each to their own.

Stayed here many times. Loads of parking and staff are fantastic. Hotel could benefit from some modernization. New carpets especially. Walk down the corridors and numerous stains does put you off a bit.

Staff are always spot on here.. always friendly, just cannot fault them. Hotel could do with a bit of a renovation, stained carpets but overall cleanliness is good. Good size rooms for the money.

Staff are excellent and very friendly as I’ve stayed here many times. However on this occasion, the bed was like a bed of slate, students staying running and shouting up the corridors till late, couldn’t get a table in the restaraunt till 8pm.. then in the morning no hot water as boiler had packed in. Maybe just a one off bad stay..

Reported the kettle was faulty and asked for a replacement, at reception the person I spoke to gave myself and wife that I was at fault. Kettle was replaced. On our return. However noticed that we did not have a change of bath towels or hand towels and the old towels were still left in the bath tub as requested. Visited reception yet again and was given replacement towels, receptionist was very apologetic. However on my return to the room noticed that bins had not been emptied, so the room had not been cleaned what so ever.

Staff were amazing - so helpful on Reception. Upgraded us as it was my birthday. Cleaning staff asked if there was a problem with the room as we had switched rooms - shows they care. Clean and comfortable. Room was a little cold and couldn’t get the heating/ AC unit to warm the room but to be fair, I didn’t ask for assistance as it was late.
