    Sadly due to roadworks and changes outside the hotel, there were no car park places. This was not hotels fault but there is a car park a 5 minute stroll away.

    Very clean room with comfy bed. Small clean en-suite shower room. Some rooms are bigger than ours but this was adequate for 2 night stay for the price we paid.

    nothing they can do about it but the lack of parking was a bit annoying. as it rained when i had to walk to park the car,

    The room was lovely. clean and comfortable. shower was very good. having a good fan was excellent as my wife suffers from hot flushes. the breakfast was very good well presented and hot when it needed to be hot and cold when it needed to be cold. Very central location

    All good ,it can be a little noisy first thing in the morning as the market sets up but it didn't bother me as I had an early start.

    Great central location and very large well presented,clean room ( Welland Suite ) for the price.

    Breakfast wasn't great, bit of a diy affair, only one member of staff to serve 14 people at once, bit of a let down after a excellent evening meal.

    Pleasant, help full staff. Excellent evening meal and great service, good choice of drinks at the bar.

    This is a town centre hotel above a pub, so do not expect views from your rooms or peace and quiet, then you won't be disappointed 👍

    Rooms were modern and well presented wiith tea / coffee making facilities. Nice shower. Staff very friendly and helpful. Reasonably priced car park two minutes walk away. Breakfast for £5 extra include cereal/ snacks buffet and a freshly cooked bacon or sausage roll. Perfect place to stay for a short trip.

    Shower cubicle very basic but excellent power shower. Could have left 2 proper towels as we were a couple but only one available. To late to ask for another when showering.

    Room was spacious for two and whilst a little dated , it was good value. Bed was comfortable.The air con unit was essential as the weather was 30 degrees and boiling hot.

    You have to go to your room through the pub. Too hot in the rooms. A little bit too noisy as a pub is there.

Breakfast was great value continental cereals, toast, porridge pastries etc + egg and bacon roll + coffee/ Tea for £5

    For me personally, the beds were extremely soft and uncomfortable. Sadly the music from the pub went on alot longer after closing time and when. The staff were in there in the morning, it was quite loud.

    The convenience of the location was good. The staff were brilliant at their jobs.
