Awful experience wouldn’t recommend for families

Very poor experience rooms were very hot with no Aircon working which they had signs up as soon as we got into main reception telling us they was broken. Also the car park facilities is absolutely shocking. Nowhere to park and strange individuals lurking around at night

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was convenient for what I needed to stay for, the staff were nice. A few things in the room didn’t work such as the desk lamp (which I needed as I was working from my room) a usb slot next to the bed was not working properly and there was no plug sockets near the bed or chair to charge phones, also under the bed there was food debris from whoever stayed before me. It can be noisy if you have the window open, and at least twice a day there are people stood below the window smoking weed and it drifts up and stinks. Can’t fault the staff, they work really hard, from the reception staff to the cleaners. Bed was a little to firm for my liking leaving me with aches and pains but the that’s just preference I think. Some non slip mats in the shower would be useful too as it can be really slippy in there (as I found out!)

Great staff and value for money.

The staff were really helpful and provided a take away breakfast at 5:30 am and additional tea and coffee sachets. Room clean but hot due to the air conditioning being broken which we had been notified of in advance and a fan was supplied.

Smoke Bins

Bins are taken out at 5:00 and staff smoking area out the back very active. On Wednesday and Thursday nights. Not enjoyable at all to be woken up. But you won’t respond to this anyways so goes unstated.
