Convenient bolthole, let down by the finish
Pros:

This is a convenient hotel close to the train station. Check in staff were lovely. Breakfast also deserves a shout out - the bacon was really exceptional.

Cons:

The layout is a bit odd, convoluted walk to my room. The room itself was large, but definitely tired with some questionable DIY (large exposed areas of filler). The bathroom however was very clean and less tired. Bed also very soft, doesn't work for my back but if you like soft you'll be happy!

Visiting Family
Pros:

We stayed for 2 nights, to visit family in April. The hotel is centrally located. The reception team are super friendly and efficient. The hotel is in good order and has plenty of cleaning staff on hand to turn rooms around quickly. The rooms themselves are comfortable, clean and well appointed. The breakfast was incl and was ok, not much flavour, with anything, however for the price it’s a bargain.
