Excellent Stay
Pros:

Parking is plentiful, albeit you have to pay and register your car and the automated check in was seamless. There is electric charging points (GeniPoint) in the car park 7kw

Stayed in a Premier Plus Room (306) and was clean and in good order. The room overlooked a large Tesco.

Food was good in the small restaurant- booking is essential.

Only negative was breakfast wasn’t ready to be served as advertised at 06:30 and as I had to leave for 06:45 this wasn’t perfect.

Overall good stay

No cleanliness..
Pros:

Awful.. I generally am pleased with premier inn, but this was the worst I had stayed in. Considering the building is only 2 years old the cleanliness was awful in particular the bathroom. The towels in the room were ripped.
Food was dreadful, cold stale dried plastic like bacon. Awful.

Don’t stay here
Pros:

I’d seen other bad reviews but thought maybe just bad luck on those guests parts. I won’t stay here again. Restaurant was a joke. Sat there an hour and in the end I left without eating anything and only a glass of water the whole hour, I nearly passed out. Waitress said it was my fault for ordering pizza?!

A pleasant stay after a long day’s work
Pros:

On arrival to check in the staff greeted us with a friendly smile and were very welcoming and helpful, the rooms were clean and comfortable and fresh towels were available on request. The service at meal times was excellent and the ladies working the evening meal were very polite and efficient and food was of good quality. And was nice to see that they were supportive of the great Ormond street hospital with a selection of gifts for sale and a tombola for me it was a pleasant stay well done to all

Stay if you just want a good night's sleep
Pros:

2 star at best. Welcome not the best all automated and we was not asked for our vehicle reg we had paid. We had issues with the temperature in the room and had to keep going back as the panel was locked so couldnt change. Dusty bathroom and mold round shower. Had the meal deal and when finished was questioned do you have anything to pay or are you on meal deal. Said meal deal assuming be paid automatically. Got a knock at the door in the room after to pay. Which we did. Went to brekkie. No juice place was a mess no one tidying breakfast areas. 1 slice of bread left only filled wen asked. 1 crumpet and 2 pancakes. Rock hard and burnt hot food. We got a refund and went to Tesco. Bargain fresh and tasty. Wont be back and wish the female staff would crack a smile too.

Very average
Pros:

Good location.
Reception never manned which is a bit of a pain. You always have to ring the bell for assistance. But they do come out quickly.
Room hadn't been cleaned properly and there was rubbish under the bed. However the bed was comfortable.
Shower area was dirty. Lots of grime considering how new the hotel is.
Breakfast was fairly good. Plenty for me as a vegetarian although you do have to ask for the hot food but that appears standard across all PIs I've stayed in.

Superb staff especially Bella a real asset to the business
Pros:

A wonderful experience, Bella could not have done more for us . We arrived late and we had booked the wrong room. She did a fantastic job off sorting out a problem we had created, she is a true asset to the company

Rip off
Pros:

Hidden parking fine.
Avoid this place.
I can accept that it's under staffed.
I can accept that it's not the Hilton.
I can accept that not everything is tip top.
I can't accept that no one tells you to pay for parking here and then you get a £60 fine in the post.
Simply stealing money to charge for parking in a motel and not inform the guests.

One night stay.
Pros:

There have been a lot of negative reviews about this hotel. On the plus side we found it to be clean and the evening meal was good.
On the negative side you have to pay for parking which is ridiculous and I had to pay for the meal rather than it being put on the room. With any decent hotel you pay when you check out.

Business user that stays there often
Pros:

It's just a basic overnight stay and if you get the rooms at the end next to the roundabout traffic noise keeps you awake all night.
For the price there are so many better hotels although sadly not in this location.
It's not like the advert. my pillowcase never properly covers the pillow on the inside. the duvet cover is open at the end, which is not hygienic, but I suspect make changing the bed easier for staff.
Its reasonably clean and not terrible but for the price you would expect much more.
