I arrived by train, the hotel is only a 5 minute walk from Preston station.
Check in is done over the phone and was very easy. You ring the owner who lets you in, takes you through the steps and you have fobs to let you in and out for the rest of the stay.
The room itself was clean, modern, comfy and had the facilities youâd expect like tea and coffee, TV and a bathroom with walk in shower. The bed was very comfy. Because it was very warm there was a fan in the room and bottled water.
There was a continental breakfast included, you help yourself to croissants, toast, juice, etc. The kitchen was fully equipped with an oven and hob so you could cook your own food.
The only negatives I have were with the bathroom which had a loose toilet seat, a light which occasionally flickered and a long hair in the sink when I arrived (definitely not mine.)
Also there was some road noise but I am a light sleeper so brought ear plugs to block it out.
The bathroom issues are minor things which could easily be sorted and have not put me off staying again which I definitely would.
The location was perfect. I went to the Ribble steam railway which is a leisurely 35-40 minute walk along the river or 20 minutes on a nearby bus. Thereâs a convenience shop over the road and an Aldi in the town centre should you need anything.
