The hotel is outside the hustle and bustle of the City Centre but close enough to make it easily accessible
Pros:

Cons:

Nothing readily comes to mind

Adequate but not great value for money.
Pros:

Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was very tasty. Room was generally quiet. Good shower but cosy! Wifi was perfectly good.

Cons:

Room was hot with no aircon or fan and the bed was quite hard for my liking. The room was also a little rough around the edges - light fittings were not properly in their holes after the ceiling had been re-painted, for instance.
Bed was not made when the room was serviced on Saturday, although towels had been refreshed and a cup cleaned.

Happy for a very short stay and easy access to m53 and dual carriageway to wales.
Pros:

Bed was very comfortable
Breakfast was good although some parts like the fried eggs and black pudding were dried out.
Nice big room however we did opt for the classic room rather then compact.

Cons:

Pillows weren’t comfortable. One was soft and one was firm but using the two was too high.
Hotel could do with a little updating. The shower was spraying outside the bath and on the floor.
Could do with a fridge in the room especially if bringing a dog who has wet dog food.
We also don’t like uht milk that hotels provide and often we would ask for a little jug of fresh milk for our tea/coffee.

Enjoyable, comfortable and hospitable.
Pros:

The staff in the dining room were particularly helpful/friendly. I wish I could remember some particular names. They gave excellent service.

Cons:

There was nothing I didn’t like, but I paid for breakfast & dinner beforehand. I could not work out if it is better value to simply pay for what you eat. I could never eat 3 courses and only had soup & cheese & biscuits one evening. I may have paid for a 3- course meal. Not sure how the payment for dinner works. Anyway, all the food I had was very nicely prepared and much appreciated.
