We only stayed one night, so facilities adequate for that. But no longer
Pros:

Facilities were generally very good.

Cons:

The fact that the room was advertised as twin bedded, but double bed in room, and also there was a bath, which as a wheelchair user, I was unable to use.

Pleasant stay unfortunately lack of hot water and property maintenance let's the place down
Pros:

Reception staff were very helpful

Cons:

Couldn't have a shower either on the night or morning of departure as there was only cold water coming out of shower. The sink had hot water on the morning. We spoke to staff who were very helpful and it seemed boiler couldn't keep up with demand, but it was evident in the morning that the shower mixer was faulty as the sink water was hot. The wall heater in room wasn't working although a oil heater had been put in the room which kept the room warm, heated towel rail did not work as the fuse had been removed, room had a general lack of maintenance

Keep away
Pros:

After a 15 he day I checked in to find no it water in the room and I was told there was no other rooms. After 15min of the staff member with there hand under cold water she agreed there was no hot water and she said she was going to re set the boiler. 25 min later I checked to see if there was any hot water and there was not. Reported it to receptionist again and found she had just been sat chatting. I complained again and miraculously there was now a spare room. The new room stunk of gag smoke. By this time it was 1030 and I wanted a shower and bed. Never ever again will I use days inn

Cons:

Location and EV charging
