    Room allocated was not ready. Poor furnishings Front of hotel had flashing lights that continued to flash through the blinds into the room all night .

    Cheap economy hotel. Close to the City centre. Attentive receptionist

    No breakfast option, vending machine had nothing in, went outside in the morning and saw 3 rats around the streets surrounding the hotel. Location was in a convenient place for us ,but after speaking with locals we were at event they said we were brave to me staying in that area. No decent food places around and as a coeliac person really struggled to eat at the weekend. Would also suggest putting some outside seating on the grass out the front to allow smokers somewhere to go instead of standing at the entrance. It’s a very noisy hotel and we could hear people walking about most of the night. Was it the worst hotel no, was it the best also no and I wouldn’t return unfortunately. It could be a real gem of a place with some love and tlc.

    Staff went above and beyond to have our room ready early for us and was clean and bed was comfy for our stay.

    Twin room with 2 single beds, one mattress was very uncomfortable as I could feel the springs and I don't think the mattress was hotel standard.The ensuite shower room was far too small to move to towel dry yourself. Car parking was £5.00 per night but was advertised as free parking on Booking.com. No hairdryer was provided and had to leave with wet hair. Also no shower gel supplied, we had to use own gel, forunately we had sense to bring our own provisions. Not very impressed as the main areas of comfort were not addressed or supplied.

    The location was ok, and a good supply of tea, coffee and biscuits.

    holes in the wall and corners of room, kettle didn't work, extractor fan was loud in bathroom. Some broken tiles in bathroom, shower drain a bit grimy, but rest of bathroom pretty clean, which is good. Room was far too warm with no way to turn the heater off.

    Front desk staff were friendly, got deposit back as soon as we checked out. Not too far from the city centre, 10-15 minute walk in a straight line and a 5 minute drive. Rooms were mostly clean. Check in was quick, our group's rooms were placed together. wasn't much noise from other rooms.
