Pros:

The breakfast was very good . Wkth generous portions.

Cons:

Directions to the rear of the hotel could have been clearer.It was tricky to find and the road was in very poor condition with potholes everywhere . The other road was better but with no signage we did not find it until layer in our stay.
The decor was very basic .
The room was clean and comfortable though but suffered from noise from neighbouring rooms .

Photos in the description do not match reality - Very poor!
Pros:

The property was close to Keighley and parking at the hotel was easy

Cons:

The room was very shabby. Wallpaper was peeling off the walls, mould in the shower and the carpets up the stairs and in the room was stained and dirty. The bed whilst comfortable was underneath the roof space making it difficult to get in and out of bed on my side. The windows were very dirty as was the area outside surrounding the hotel. Breakfast was ok if you had continental but the cooked breakfast was very poor and used very cheap sausages. One of the reasons for staying here was the fact that there was an EV charger, however at £1.40 a KW it was too expensive to plug in.

Everything you need
Pros:

Didn’t know what to expect as self check in first time but everything was fine

Cons:

Nothing not to like … everything you need in the hotel … paperwork needs updating as it still mentions Roebuck next door for food and drink but it’s closed down
