Very comfortable with brilliant breakfast
Pros:

Hotel was very clean and I had a comfortable stay. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. The staff were lovely.

My room was junior suite but still the lighting was quite poor and I found it difficult to get ready.

convenience a comfort and friendly staff - what's no to like?
Pros:

Very clean and comfortable , excellent brekafast and outstanding staff for example, in the restaurant they turned the music down when we ate there (we are old and a bit deaf so it was hard to hear ourselves talk!)

Cons:

Double glazing not all that effective at covering the road noise and the DJ event in the Thrree Mile bar was very noisy on the Wednesday evening - though when we phoned reception they did ask them to turn down the base. which helped a bit.
