Average stay for a need to basis.
Pros:

Reclining sofa in the room

Cons:

No fans, unable to open doors - north of 30 degrees heat and nothing can be catered. No aircon either.

Its okay if u need to crash somewhere. The head chef was great and made the best sticky toffee pudding for us.

Pros:

The main thing was the staff! They were so down to earth and so helpfull. Ok the hotel isnt that great to be honest. The bedrooms could do with modernising but were clean. You get what you pay for and for £55 a room a night and a full English breakfast at £6.50 it was well worth it. A party of 6 ladies we came for a festival in Rotherham and it did the job!
