Great Room, comdy bed, nice shower and very spacious.
Pros:

I like that there was parking available and it's really close to town. A very nice location.

Cons:

I didn't like that my room had no window. I think next time I'm going to pay attention to the descriptions of the rooms. I don't like sleeping in a box.

Comfortable Enough But Some Drawbacks
Pros:

The room was spacious, the shower was nice once you gave it a minute or two to heat up.

We loved the option to pay a tenner for an extra hour for late checkout.

It was close to pharmacies, Tesco express and sainsburys as well as a load of restaurants.

The reception staff were lovely and helpful.

Cons:

On Saturday (21/03/26) we went down for breakfast and were greeted with rudeness, felt like we were an inconvenience even though we arrived 35/40 minutes before breakfast ends. There was hardly any food left and the staff member was cleaning up before the end time.

The hearing in the room was very hot and took a good while to cool down.

The bed was two singles combined rather than a double. This was awkward because there was a gap in the middle of the bed.

We spent three nights and the room bins, toilet roll and towels were never replaced or emptied. Clearly no house keeping.
