This is a lovely hotel that we chose due to price and proximity to the M5, as we were travelling from the South West to the North West and needed a base for a couple of nights at the half-way point without diverting too far off route. We were pleasantly surprised on arrival to find free parking on site as the hotel website suggested that the parking was very limited and chargeable. Although the carpark isn't huge, we arrived after 9pm on both nights of our stay and there were a few spaces available. Should the carpark be full, there is a very large Tesco / shopping centre across the road which offers plenty of parking at a low cost. Check in was efficient and staff were very friendly in welcoming us. We had a lovely surprise on entering our room - a lovely handmade Easter card and a Creme Egg for each of us (we were a family of 4). We found this to be a nice touch that you don't expect from a budget hotel. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy and the beds comfortable. The only ******* were that our upstairs neighbours were incredibly noisy late at night (it sounded like they had kids jumping off the beds onto the floor) which wasn't the fault of the hotel at all but made it difficult for us to fall asleep. We also would have appreciated more tea / coffee / milk (although there are plenty of spares available to collect from reception, we needed to refill after a single cuppa, bearing in mind there were 4 of us in the room). As an added bonus, there is an Amazon locker located just outside the door to the hotel which was very handy when I needed to make an emergency purchase. I would absolutely stay here again.
