Not the best, but good breakfast.

Room was small, with terrible view out the window, alley way was used by people at night as a cut through and woke my partner up, walls are thin. Bathroom could do with a bit of work, grout around the bath and tiles could do with sorting, shower head run.

Disappointed this time

Stayed few times. We are disappointed this time. 1. the so called air cooler is the waste of space. When you switch it on and put either fan or cool mode, it make the noise that no nowe will sleep. Instead of this if they give us normal fan that would have been begetter. Since e the night is cool, we managed it buy owning the window. 2. The most disappoint met was the shower. You do not get steady hot water every 30 to 45 seconds you get the cold water and you get warm water and again back to cold water which was very cold 3. The mirror for shaving over the wash basin - not working. The pull cord is permanently in one position.

After we found parking, we checked in- it was easy. The receptionist was friendly. The hotel location is good - in the pretty town centre with good amenities very close by. Room was comfy, basic but had everthing we needed for our 1 night stop over. We slept well but scratching above woke us a few times. (There were visible rats about the area).

Not a hotel!

Awful, not really a hotel just a series of cramped, shabby rooms around a public car park, with the backs of restaurants including bins for scenery. Handmade note in bathroom tells you to run hot tap for a bit to draw water through...10 minutes later i had warm water. No restaurant in hotel, asked at reception where in the area was nice to eat and the response of Wetherspoons from reception tells you everything about this hotel. I travel and use a lot of hotels for work and the standard of this hotel was not reflected in the price...for £90 a night ive stayed in much nicer hotels in the same area. Definitely not going back.

Great room, average but plentiful breakfast.

We had a very nicely renovated large room on the second floor of the main building, looking out onto the pedestrian High Street. A little noise from the party-goers, but got to sleep fine. Buffet breakfast was plentiful but nothing special, ie bacon overdone, cheap sausages and weak filtered coffee but nice croissant and pastries.
