Pros:

Location it’s okay, brother and the meantime the money will be the service is not worth

Cons:

Well, the businesses usually nothing to say though but the surface to be honest it’s to be complicated 50-50

For Bolton quite good
Pros:

Everything all ok, except there was no food available from 21.30, the kitchen closes. Not even a sandwich, this needs to be address, there should be some sort of food, if only some bread. I returned to the hotel at 10.30 and there was nothing to eat except a packet of crisps, somebaody should be trained to make a basic sandwich, with 3 bar staff personnel and reception staff, no one could make a sandwich or get a croissant?

Cons:

As above no food after 21.30 and no help to get any

Overall comfortable stayin a great location
Pros:

The room was comfortable. The building itself was nice and in a good location. The breakfast area was lovely with options for extra things you can request to be made (e.g. pancakes, which were lovely!), and a lovely selection of tea. The staff were also all very lovely and helpful!

Cons:

A few issues with the rooms - no socket near the mirror to use hair styling tools, the shower door was broken, etc.
I also didn’t love all the parts of breakfast
