10/10 Exceptional

Excellent new restaurant just opened next to hotel. Food Turkish, not too spicy and good. The bar was lively and pleasant place for a drink
Elaine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Would definitely stay again

The room was clean on arrival although a little tired in places mainly in the shower area. The bed was amazingly comfortable giving a great night sleep. The staff are polite, friendly and very willing to help in anyway they can
Stephen, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The bed was comfortable, was a bit dated though. Didn’t have much option for breakfast but was a good size.
Kirsty, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Attempted to stay here. Hotel took full payment but failed to mention they were closed.
Kian, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent hotel at a good price.

Good parking available onsite, a friendly welcome at reception, had expected a restaurant in the hotel, but was advised of local eateries by the guy on reception, which helped. Our room was compact but for one night it was fine, thick white towels and soap/shampoo supplied too. Plenty of hot water. Would stay again. We ate at the India Cafe, a 3 min walk and can highly recommend.

Paul, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

basic

You get what you pay for. This is a budget hotel with no frills. It suited my needs as I just needed a bed for the night.
Anton, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel has a staffing issue and lack of people meant we felt like this was a self service hotel. The breakfast ingredients were cheap and this came through in the quality of the breakfast
gary, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great staff, shame about the hotel.

Ample parking, friendly staff. Very dated and definitely not the best sleep ive had, bed was solid and creaky floorboards above me didnt help matters. Clean bed linen and fresh towels, breakfast was reasonable but little choice either hot or cold. Bar also called last orders at 20:30.
Andrew, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The breakfast was a disgrace, we paid extra for breakfast which turned out to be toast and a yogurt!!
Alistair, 2-night trip

Hotel room lovely and staff very efficient and friendly would definitely stay again
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Basic, clean, comfortable 1 night stay.

The location was great for the station. The check in was via the bar and the man was very friendly and helpful. He appeared to be working alone. The hotel itself although clean and comfortable was in desperate need of updating and maintenance - the gutters were great for the grass! Didn't try the shower or the breakfast. Ok for 1 night.

Improvement

Could do with handrai In shower unit for older people in the room you put me in.
Alan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Really friendly check in. Informative gave us later check out due to the nature of our stay. Room very spacious and clean. However room very cold radiator doesnt work. Called the number at reception they brought a portable heater which was fab. If it had just been my partner & myself staying it
Kelly, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pub downstairs was great. Friendly staff but delays in check in and breakfast due to limited staff.

Jeremy, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

parking was available. Food did not exist no chef available. No breakfast that was paid for in advance - and still awaiting the refund that was promised. This was authorised at the property!!! Bar had no available draughts and very poorly stocked fridges. Wifi is terrible.

So So

Hotel is a little run down. Breakfast, no more than average.
Barrie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

From and unwelcoming hotel overall. Clean room and comfortable bed but poor shower and television reception. Substandard service and limited selection of foods at breakfast and did not have a number of the foods offered on the limited 3 options on the breakfast menu e.g. porridge with berries and honey - NO BERRIES 1st thing on Sunday morning. Bar closed and no food available in the hotel at all due to ‘lack of staff’. Private function until midnight on our first night meant we did not get to sleep until after it stopped at midnight.
Jackie, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check in smooth and informative , very pleasant. Breakfast nice and sufficient. Staff very nice.
