This is fine for a one-night stopover or if you are there for work but that's about it.
Pros:

Room was nice. Clean and comfortable and nice shower.

Cons:

The lift wasn't working and we were on the 2nd floor. Food stopped being served 8.15pm. Pub next door, food stopped at 8.00pm. Nothing else in the area so you have to order takeaway to eat in your room. Small poor bar with a not-great seating area. There was one member of staff who multi-tasked with a passion.... check-in, customer service, office admin, waitress, bar server, table cleaner. She was run off her feet. Lovely lady (I think her name was Dian)

Ideal für Zwischenübernachtung
Pros:

Hotel für Zwischenübernachtung gewählt; dafür ideal, nahe der Autobahn, ausreichend Parkplätze, Zimmer aber trotzdem ruhig, groß und sauber.

Cons:

Qualität des Frühstücks eher mäßig für einen relativ stolzen Preis, auch das Abendessen war eher mau.

Location is easy for getting to and from the motorway. Price was good in comparison to others. Bed was comfortable

Cons:

Didn't like I've been fined for car parking from ukpc. My room key wouldn't let me back in to the hall, so we had to be accompanied up.
