A very pleasant stay.
Pros:

Value for money. The room was comfortable, dinner and breakfast were both good quality and reasonably priced. Sky sports on several televisions in the bar area was a bonus.

Cons:

The only issue is that the property was a little tired in places. The challenge, however, is balancing constant redecorating with keeping prices reasonable.

Good room for £50 welcoming staff and good location
Pros:

The woman on the desk was very friendly and helpful a credit to your company
Good location
Plenty of free parking

Cons:

I was in room 21 there was staining in thr toilet also the flush being on the right hand side right next to the wall makes it difficult some times very to use it.
The door stop being in the middle of the floor is a strange decision as it can be painful
The WiFi kept disconnecting
