Nope
Pros:

The room was ok , the staff eager although inexperienced

Cons:

We paid for “breakfast” and were told very insistently that it was “complimentary” we should have got a refund , the “a la carte” menu was shocking , we were charges £45 for a Tesco ready meals , a mixed rice sold as Biryani nothing else just the rice with two prawns a Butter Chicken , white rice and Nan bread , all microwaved in dessert bowls , we had to pay as we went although we also had to give a credit card over as well I thought that it was for a tab , I still do not know why , AND they charge £25 if you want your room serviced , I travel extensively and primarily in Kent , but do not tell me that you have a “South Asian” Chef then serve up overpriced microwaved meals from the Tesco express next door , it’s theft . When we arrived there was a workman fitting quadrant to the Lino , I have no problem with that , but I would have preferred that when he was talking on speakerphone he had used his “inside” voice , I am always happy to support small business , but in this instance its buyer beware , their prices are comparable to some outstanding Hotels in the Maidstone area , I have stayed in most of them , as I said , if you need just a room , and you can afford it , it’s ok. But I would recommend a hard pass on their food , oh and by the way , when your greater in the morning and they ask how would you like your eggs , don’t say scrambled , they only have fried , and bring earplugs , the bell ringing over the television noise was disconcerting to say the least . As is as , the staff were pleasant , but usury is usury .

Comfortable hotel.
Pros:

Nice big room with a very comfortable bed. Good to have tea and coffee facilities, ironing board and iron. Linen and towels were of a good quality. Good breakfast. Staff were very friendly and efficient. It was really good value for the price and in a good location.

Cons:

They were doing a bit of work in the hotel, which wasn't a problem. In the bathroom the toilet bowl was a bit stained and a toilet brush would have been a good thing.

Don't bother unless you're desperate
Pros:

The location was convenient for my destination the next day

Cons:

Paid for deluxe room and it didn't look anything like the pictures I saw. They had highways workers staying there and their lorry woke me up at 3am because they'd crashed into something in the car park. Shower was useless and plumbed the wrong way round.
