Room clean and spacious. Bed like a sponge too soft, pillows very thick/ high gives you neck ache. Breakfast should be missed. Cold bacon and beans, cold dried up scrambled egg. Low quality juice, instant coffee. Toastee and kettle don't work at the same time as it trips the fuse on the electric extension lead they are plugged into.

Tidy room, the fridge in our room had an odd odor, which was rather unpleasant. Very close to hallway so was quite loud during the night. Second stay, first stay was much better.

The room had a stained blanket and chairs and so many dead bugs on the windowsill and floors that I'm not certain it was actually cleaned before we arrived.

1 night's stay, 2pax - good, can be better Rooms were clean & spacious - pillows were good quality, beds were a little too soft but that's just personal preference. Amenities were good, standard fare -bathroom was again spacious & clean, pretty ample space for one room. Staff were nice, though older female was more attentive on exit than the young male that initially greeted us on entry. Continental Breakfast this morning - basic, have had better elsewhere; attention to detail & presentation would help here. Overall, 7/10 - would stay here again, but at a push.
