It was nice but could have been better .
Pros:

The staff were friendly and it was mostly clean .

Cons:

My room looked tired, it had paint falling off the ceiling in the bathroom, under the shelf the wall was very marked looked like shoe marks all down the wall . The kettle was dodgy because the lead was a bit short and the kettle was leaking . There was a constant noise that sounded like a boiler or something going all night . The light on the smoke alarm which is directly over the bed was really annoying as it was flashing . The shower door at the bottom was really grubby .

Room and receptionist great but breakfast a bit hit and miss
Pros:

Plenty of parking, reception staff very helpful. Large room, iron & ironing board provided.

Cons:

Didn’t realise I had booked an accessible room. Wet room which would have been fine if the extractor fan worked.
Went to Breakfast at 8.50, food had been out too long, bacon dry, hash browns very greasy and dry, only 3 mushrooms, and 1 dried up egg plus 1 piece of cold fried bread. Sausages and baked beans were ok. Very disappointed.

Pros:

Без комментариев...

Cons:

В номере старинный телевизор, запах невыносимый, сырость. Выбор в городке не большой. Не понравилось. Еда на завтрак ужасна, не вкусно всё выглядит так как будто стоит не первый день.

Staff were very good hotel not value for money, would not stay here again 😡
Pros:

Staff

Cons:

Bath was in a terrible state rust and jagged edges around the rim - very dangerous.
Breakfast was cold and not good value for money, would be better cooked to order as there was a lot of waste,
Paying for car park. Understand to put registration in but not to charge guests.
