Woken at 3am covered in bedbugs bites, had to abandon my trip and return home
Pros:

nothing, avoid the place.

Cons:

BED BUGS!

This was one of the most distressing hotel experiences I have ever had. Based on my experience, I strongly recommend that travellers DO NOT STAY at this property.

I woke up at around 3am covered in bites and discovered what appeared to be bed bugs in my room. I photographed the insects, took pictures of the more than 40 bites across my body, and even kept one of the bugs trapped to show the hotel staff. Despite this, the hotel later claimed they had found only a single bed bug.

After the incident, I searched online and found other reviews mentioning bed bugs, which left me concerned that this may not have been an isolated occurrence.

The consequences were significant. I had to abandon my trip, return home early, professionally steam clean my belongings, and miss two days of an event I had paid over £1,000 to attend. The hotel refunded the room but refused to compensate for the emergency transport costs, cleaning expenses, or the event days I was unable to attend as a direct result of the incident.

I sincerely do not recommend staying here. No guest should have to experience waking up covered in bites, worrying about bringing bed bugs home, and then feeling that the full extent of the situation has not been properly acknowledged.

Pros:

The staff were very helpful

Cons:

The smell was like wet dog wet mop and cheesy feet . The room was very outdated and needed a full renovation.
The room was ground floor and the windows were all open and wouldn't close as it had no handle the room was freezing and we would not use the bath or shower if you paid me. There was a bar of soap and what hotel in 2026 uses a bar of soap.the trouser press and iron were not working and the last pat test was 2004 the other table top ironing board was also broken. The remote was not working.

Very reasonable. Some improvements would make it much better.
Pros:

Clean and very large room. Bathroom very nice, great shower - looks newly decorated. Room service very quick. Staff efficient and polite. Comfortable sofa and chairs. 15% off voucher for pub next door was a nice bonus - food was good. Price of room is very reasonable. Peaceful hotel and a great nights sleep.

Cons:

Pest control / rat or mouse trap outside front entrance. Might be necessary but you could make it less obvious - tuck it behind the bin. Shower a bit slippy - consider a shower mat. Provide more milk in the rooms so people don't have to come and ask.
