We stayed here whilst attending an event at the NEC. Easy drive here and very convenient. Bedrooms are spacious and ours had full size twin beds. Nothing luxurious but we had everything we needed. Wonderful bar and restaurant. Will definitely book next time.

Bed was so uncomfortable

Check in was ok but a bit slow. Room was tired, shower door broken, no hairdryer in room and no phone in room to check with reception to see if I could borrow a hairdryer. But oh the bed was absolutely shocking. Bedding looked clean, pillows were flat and thin but omg the mattress was just so bad. Rock hard on the edges yet it gave no support in the middle. It was one of the worse beds we have ever slept on

The room was do bad we ended up moving to another hotel. Om arrival the room was freezing and smelled of sewage. It was very dated and didnt look clean, carpet was stained with a build up of dust around the edges. The walls were grubby and has lits of marks on. The sheet on the bed was stained, tbere was no mattress protectors on the mattress. One of the towels had a scab on it which was the final straw! The staff were pleasant and tried to be helpful though, they offered a refund which should arrive after head office have been informed

The room was clean and comfortable albeit the walls are a wee bit thin. The bar and restaurant area are well maintained and cosy and the food and drink was very nice and not too expensive, breakfast was also enjoyable. The only downside was getting charged for parking which wasn't pre-advertised.

Unfortunately, we didn't have the best stay here. The staff were very friendly and accommodating however, there was multiple stains, marks and hairs left in the shower and bathroom as well as the bedroom. The pillows were extremely thin which prevented comfort through the night. The walls are so thin we could hear general conversations from the room next to us including snoring all through the night which again affected our sleep. The food was also a disappointment. We had to send it back after being sick following a few mouthfuls. The staff were understanding and agreed the taste wasn't up to standard. Breakfast and parking wasn't worth the extra money. We were told on the day they would have matched Expedia prices and gave us free parking. This is not advertised on their website and too late once arrived. The building was a good size and had both bar and restaurant area.

Cheap enough. Walls paper thin, so it can be noisy. Mattress could do with replacing, but sleep able.

Thin walls and snoring

The walls in my room were so thin, I could hear my room neighbour snore... all night... so take your earplugs! The waiting to check in was extensive. We have stayed for at least 10 years now and I feel this may have been the last time. Extra charges for car parking .... really..??

When I checked in as a single female occupant, the receptionist (an older lady) made a joke and then announced my room number very loudly when others were around which did not make me feel safe. The restaurant staff were lovely and the food was exceptional. The shower in my room was awful had poor pressure and scalding hot. The beds were springy and hard so did not manage to get a decent night's sleep, especially for the price I paid I would have preferred a slightly better bed. I also booked a double but was given a room with two single beds but I did not complain as I was tired.

We didn’t pay a lot for our stay. The room was very dark the lights were not bright enough. The bed was not comfortable. No hairdryer. Tea and coffee but no spoon to stir it! Cleanliness was fair. Cobwebs in corners paint peeling in the bathroom and in general rooms needed a lick of paint.

We arrived at the strawberry bank on the night of the 5th December. We were catching a plane from the airport the following day. We booked in by the most delightful staff members, both of in good humour, friendly, a lovely welcome. We went to the restaurant and the young lady there was very professional and charming. A good host. The meal was very enjoyable. We needed to be up for the opening of the restaurant to have breakfast the following morning as we had a plane to catch Our room was standard but comfortable clean and everything was there that was needed. However, by surprise, on getting up we found there was no lighting in the bathroom. We managed; (being conscious these things happen in the best of places). On going downstairs there was a woman and a man sitting behind reception. No 'good morning how can I help you?' or anything of the sort from either of them. I told her about it She looked at me with incredulity said that she can't see that this could happen and asked me if I had tried the right switches. The attitude was such that it was sour faced and she was treating me like an idiot as if it was my fault.. No apology no salutation or respect for a customer. There is far more than this and I would like to be contacted. I could not get it all on here.
