Pay more and hopefully get a bed that allows a comfortable night's sleep.
Pros:

Room was spacious and clean. Shower was good with plenty of hot water. Road noise not noticeable due to position of room.

Cons:

Bed was the most uncomfortable I have slept in for decades. It was hard as a rock with virtually no padding at the top of the mattress. Kept waking up throughout the night from an aching body. Not impressed. Will not book into Ramada Inn again.

Pros:

The staff were very pleasant, and it was in a good location. It was very quiet which was nice.

Cons:

We stayed in a disabled room, which was really far away from reception. Then when we got to the room there was a really strong fusty smell. This cleared from the bedroom once we opened the window but was still very strong and unpleasant in the bathroom. The room was very tired and looked like it had been thrown together at the last minute. There was only one bedside table, so I had to put my essential items on the floor!! Then the wall at the side I was sleeping looked like someone had thrown a drink down it, and it had only been partially cleaned. Very, very disappointed, don't think I would return.
