Average OK for one night
Pros:

It was all averagely ok nothing great nothing bad. It did give we provide temporary housing vibes very strongly. That maybe unfair but it was the vibe.

Cons:

The receptionist took me to the room because it was in an out building and up some stairs. I had 3 bags and he didn't even offer to take one. Just felt even if I'd been a man he should have at least offered to help.

Could do better
Pros:

The room facilities were good. (Microwave, hob, hair dryer etc.) The room was also quite spacious.

Cons:

The bed was incredibly uncomfortable. The room was very warm, even with a cooling fan on. The staff weren't unpleasant but weren't "at the desk" when we came to check in or out- they were in a back room on a personal phone call. The breakfast was lacklustre at best and overpriced.

Large numbers of migrants are the big negative
Pros:

Heating worked well and bed very comfortable. Dinner was good as was breakfast the following morning. staff very attenuative

Cons:

The hotel is clearly a refugee centre for migrants and large number of men were loitering in the ground. Parts of the hotel are out of bounds and lone female travellers would feel uncomfortable.

Full of Asylum seekers
Pros:

The room was well equipped and comfortable.

Cons:

Well when arriving on the evening there were a lot of foreign people outside the entrance of the hotel smoking with more looking out of the hotel room windows. It was later noted that the main hotel is full with long term occupancy of asylum seekers. In view of this the only rooms for general sale are the annex and outside entrance rooms.

I would imagine this place would be very intimidating for long ladies visiting these premises. The carpark is relatively small and appears to share access with local estate.
