Easy to book, easy to find. Nearest parking was 5 minutes walk and £22 for 24 hours. I would use thi
Pros:

Basic but clean and comfortable, all the facilities I needed were provided.

Cons:

One of the two lifts was out of action so as I was in and out of the hotel a few times carrying equipment it meant longer waits than I was happy with.

A decent budget stay in the town centre.
Pros:

I didn't realise how central the location was. Excellent in that it was a short walk from the train station and right in the middle, as far as all amenities were concerned. The room was spacious, warm, and cosy. The shower was a good size, and the water was nice and hot. The bed was comfortable, and I got a good night's sleep.

Cons:

I did have initial concerns about how secure the lock was on the door, but it was fine. I know these are complementary, but it would be nice to have a few more drink selections in the room, like hot chocolate sachets and alternative milks. An extra pillow and an extra cover would be appreciated. I would like to see the normal checking-in time brought forward. I know you can request this separately, but for ease, it would be nice for it to be generally 2 pm.
