Very convenient location a short drive from the M5 and it has plenty of free parking. Easy check-in with a friendly receptionist. There is a lift, handy as our room was on the top floor (3). The room was a Standard Double but was very spacious and there was adequate storage for our 2-person 3-night stay. No air-con but the windows could be opened a few inches and heating was easily controlled. All was clean, tidy and in perfect condition. Our bed was very comfortable with plenty of pillows and a warm duvet. It was quiet at night with little road noise. The room curtains were very efficient, best set your alarm to avoid sleeping in. Also was desk space with an office-type chair and a long sofa that presumably can be the third bed, a TV, hair dryer and tea/coffee making facilities. The free WiFi was fast and reliable. The bathroom was also spotless and had that clever door arrangement that enables the whole bathroom or just the WC to be made private. The spacious shower was excellent with a shower gel dispenser. The attraction with HI-Ex hotels is the included breakfast, so there are no costly shocks you often get with budget hotels. Unusually, but very welcome, it opened at 6:30 a.m. The food offer buffet was more than adequate, hot sausage, bacon, beans, scrambled egg, plus a choice of cereal, croissants, toast, and fresh fruit. Tea/coffee of course, plus baps so if in a hurry you could make a bacon bap and dash off. If you can't find anything to like here then you really are hard to please! As all the staff were very friendly and helpful this made it a lovely place to stay and I wouldn't hesitate to come back.
Excellent
