Hotel is easy to find with adequate parking, staff were all polite and very accommodating with our very late arrival (2.30am)! Rooms are clean and well equipped if a little dated. Good value for money.
My 5th stay at this hotel. Everytime is good. Wifi is slow, breakfast hit and miss i guess due to staffing. When it is full breakfast it is great. If it is the continental, i would probably give it a miss.
Nice quiet location friendly staff nice room only ten minutes to town centre

Staff at reception . Very friendly polite. But unfortunately only gave 3 stars because breakfast was not nice hash brown still cold odd 1 still frozen in middle . And when i got down to breakfast i wasnt late but nothing left apart from bean tomatoes and the last 2 hash brown. My room was cold radiator not working. I told staff and was going get someone look or put heater in the room. I got neither . Could do with spruce up in rooms doors mainly and bedroom furniture big let down. I would had gone elsewhere if i knew i was going expect this

Although an unusual building, looking like a school or offices, it was absolutely fine - warm, comfortable and quiet, which is all you want for an overnight stop. We were a little apprehensive becuase it was so cheap, but the reviews said it was fine, which it was, hence a bargain
