Lovely spacious room. Think we must have had an upgrade as it was more than just a standard double room. Bed was huge and very comfy. Had a sofa in the room too. Breakfast was lovely and amazing for only £4 each! Overall thought it was really good value for money. Hotel has lots of character, free parking (through a very narrow opening) and about half the price of nearby Premier inn and a much nicer stay. I expect the prices will go up soon though once everyone hears it’s back open again.
I've stayed in this hotel before, but it seems to have had a management change (no longer Mercure). I reported a few issues: such as there being no milk in the room, the shower dispensers being empty and the wifi not working. Also, the cleaning staff entered the room before I'd checked out. I believe all of these are easily fixable with staff training. I hope to return.
