Hotel and staff are good but rules are not
Pros:

Good location for my office

Cons:

I disagree with £25 deposit against room damage.This implies that they don’t trust their guests. I have stayed here 10 times this year already. Maybe they should check guest history before taking a deposit. I also disagree with a £3 parking charge, This is an out of town location ant the car park has major pot holes
