The room allocated was an end room with an opening door onto the street which was very noisy and the bed very uncomfortable and hard, the shower head needed attention as rusted and hard to manoeuvre which an elderly person could not do as it’s was a disabled room which made me laugh as you have to go up and down 3 lots of stairs to get to this room stuck as far back as I can be from the reception , staff on entering very cold and blunt but the DIY guy very pleasant and helpful , breakfast ok but not worth £11 and the girl serving needs to cheer up around guests as miserable as sin, loverly place overall hunted or not.

Stayed at this hotel many times as it is easy within easy access to all local shops etc, however apart from the friendly staff and a quality breakfast there are no other positives to report!

Quite a nice stay. Room spacious and clean and looks modern. There was a wedding on down stairs which was very noisy but we were warned and given the option to cancel. Will stay again.

Well I love the aesthetic of the hotel! Really cool! Everything was pretty good. Comfy bed. Could only hear the train outside from our room but it wasn’t often. The nit picky things were how loud the switch (light or plug) noise was from our neighbouring room. The other thing was that even though the shower was amazing, the water even with glass protector and huge puddles on the floor. Luckily we used the bath Mat to soak the water up and then put it on the bathroom dryer. The toilet was so close to the wall i didn’t have space or felt awkwardly positioned on it. The mirror light didn’t work either. Other than that everything good!! The coffee machine was clean and worked fine. Bedding was clean. The staff were friendly and kind. The breakfast staff; waitress’ were very friendly and helpful too.

Lovely hotel. Warm welcome and nicely appointed room. Heating good, unlike some hotels. I ended up in a disabled room which was fine and would have been easy to use for someone disabled. Breakfast was excellent and great value for money. Only downside was my room was close to the road (for disabled access) so was quite noisy before 11.30pm and after 6am. Would stay again though.

Friendly staff and clean rooms. Our room was a it noisy but reception provided ear plugs on request- handy door out on to the street. Noting too much and was convenient to be able to order food in with the choice of eating in the bar or in your room with plates etc provided. Breakfast was delicious. Really nice stay for a family mini break! Thank you!
