Great location and comfy bed but struggled to sleep due to noisy plumbing
Pros:

Comfy bed. Good sized room. Perfect location for the Victory Show. The staff were friendly, check-in was straightforward.

Cons:

The toilet hadn’t been flushed when we arrived at our room. There was no soap in the bathroom sink dispenser. The plumbing was extremely noisy and prevented sleep. The radiators in the room were rusty. The windows didn’t shut easily and the place generally looked tired and run down.

Don’t expect to much but it does the job for the cost, handy having the pub next door but the service left much to be de
Pros:

It was convenient for the event we were attending.

Cons:

It was convenient but the whole place was ‘unloved’, rubbish everywhere outside, damaged paintwork, coat hooks hangs off & overgrown greenery. It needs some work!

OK, but noisy
Pros:

Very friendly staff. Good Location, Good pub adjacent . Comfy Beds

Cons:

The annex building appears to have been constructed with macerator waste pumps for toilet and sinks. This are clearly quite old an noisy now. The vibration of these could be heard right throughout the building. Anyone using the toilet late evening, through the night, in the morning sent reverberating sounds that would wake you up (even if a couple of rooms away).
The facilities are clean, but rooms starting to look a bit tired.
You get what you pay for......but the noise would put me off returning.

Convenient would probably stay again but thinks it could be more organised and comfortable
Pros:

Convenient Location….was good for what we needed.
Friendly staff

Cons:

Booked a room for a family of 4 but when we arrived room only had one bed, went to reception to inform them and was told yes but there is a sofa bed! …..although it hadn’t been set up ready for our arrival and was no bedding for it, staff did rectify the problem and tried to find what was needed and was sorted in around 20 minutes but also only had 2 towels between the 4 of us until the 2nd day and had to share the pillows from the main bed as told no extra pillows. Bed was very hard.

Breakfast was ok but not very organised
1st day Cereals but no milk and green/furry fruit in fruit bowl. 2nd day glasses
but no juice.

Will probably stay here again but not in room 7.
Pros:

The staff were brilliant, engaging without over familiarity.

Cons:

We didn't get room 7 which we were given before and was a nightmare for my wife. She was kept awake by the incessant on / off of a pump somewhere above our ceiling. Lovely place but needs modernisation of the heating and plumbing.
