WILDES INNS
The room I had was in the old part of the hotel and was noisy, very cold and in need of a refurb - curtains didn't fit, heavily stained carpet and generally tired. Food and service was good as were the team. Handy for the motorway but not sure I would stay again

Some small issues, TV remote not working, bedside shelves wonky, no hand towel and air con not great. However the place was clean, staff friendly and has on-site parking. Overall it was reasonable for the price paid.
