On the Road.

Pros: Overall, I think it is a very good quality hotel which is what you expect under the Holiday Inn branding.
Location: Right near motorway. Great pub called The George in walking distance.
The hotel was in a good location for a traveller. It was very modern and clean. Price was very reasonable and breakfast was included. Very good choice at breakfast buffet. It was good to see tomato juice on offer at breakfast because most hotels usually don't have it. Room was a good size and bath was excellent. Quiet location and easy to access motorway. Walking distance to a quaint pub called The George.
