Friendly staff and excellent cooked breakfast. Very comfortable bed. Easy check in and check out. The room could do with a lick of paint. The lights and fridge made a buzzing noise.

Lovely staff

Establishment was clean with friendly, helpful staff. Hospitality tray/ water not replenished for second night. Don't understand this policy as same room rate charged. We decided to have a nightcap before 10pm to find bar closed.

One night stay

Stay here for one night as skydiving nearby. Needed to be out early so missed breakfast. The staff however stocked our fridge with milk, yoghurt, fruit and cereal for the morning. Really friendly staff. Great location if you are skydiving at Shotton. Would stay again.

Lovely place

A really lovely quiet hotel, there arent many in the area. All very clean, lovely bedroom and superb breakfast with a friendly smile. Checkin was smooth and the lady was really friendly and showed me to my room and also served me a few well poured guinness later that evening. Thank you i will certainly stay again. They didn't serve an evening meal but plenty of options not too far away.
