I always enjoy my visits to this hotel. Normally, I am able to request my favourite room, #5 on the first floor of two (no lift). On my most recent occasion, I was informed at check-in that there was a problem with the window blind, which is huge. The young man on reception was able to fix it, although there was still a bright external light which cast its beams onto the left side of the bed and pillow. The only quick solution was to lean the handle of my suitcase against the side of the blind to eliminate as much light as possible. Another guest had made a similar recent comment. Maybe a new rail and fixings wouldn't go amiss? Otherwise, the room was fully carpeted and extremely cosy, offering a comfortable double bed, TV, storage and hanging spaces, plenty of sockets, a well-stocked tea and coffee tray and no bright internal lights. There is also a fan with variable speeds. The shower room is quite small, but perfectly adequate, with a powerful shower, and offering high quality shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, hand and body lotion. Even the loo paper is not the usual thin offering! White, fluffy towels are in abundance, too. I would imagine no two rooms are the same. Even though the hotel is a five minute walk to the station, the trains do not disturb you. Also, the first floor is directly above the bar and eating areas, but there is no sound. So, thank you, Station Hotel. I'm sure I will return soon.
Very Good
