Great value and great find for Rotherham
Pros:

The price was a big reason for booking, but the location was great as needed to get to the football ground and then only a few mins away from my meeting the next morning. Great little find for my future Rotherham meetings.

Cons:

Bit noisy with the road, but manageable and it was a bit hot overnight, shower head needs replacing but other than that, less than £50 per night

Need more family rooms like this
Pros:

Booked deluxe family suite was expecting a larger room with bedroom and sofa bed, room was actually a small 2 bedroom apartment.

Cons:

Arrived after reception had closed had to check in at the bar but no computer available so took a while to establish which room we actually had booked
