Booked last minute for a quick stay. Loads of free parking spaces. Easy check in. Staff really helpful. Rooms clean and bright. We didn’t use the gym, swimming pool or restaurant so can’t comment. Bar had good selection and great staff. 5 mins in taxi to town centre. Overall a very good experience would stay again.

The hotel seemed very tired and worn. The room smelt of TCP, the bed was a very small double and it was extremely hard. Breakfast was poor quality food. Overall at £180 is was very expensive for what we had, would not stay here again
