Food was terrible and had no flavour at all. The cook, by no means a chef would not entertain my request for poached eggs at breakfast. It is a Holiday Inn Express what you see is what you get. My colleague had a beef burger that was so well cooked it could of been used as a hockey puck. The waiting staff that night could only just about string an English spoken sentence together. At £220 plus a night you would expect better. Definitely one to avoid

Very friendly staff, good check in. Our room looked a little tired with old tea/coffee stains on the carpet but suited our needs for a one night stay. Breakfast a bit busy and chaotic but food really hot and tasty

Room good but parking poor. Parked on arrival and paid £7 up front to park 24 hours. Later we went out for an evening meal (the hotel restaurant was chaotically busy), when we got back the car park was overflowing with cars parked outside the spaces as there was no alternative. We had to park in the same way. We informed reception who said that they were going to free up some spaces and would phone when a space was available. They never phoned.
