Categories

Cleanliness
7
Mixed reports: some guests explicitly noted clean rooms, but others mentioned old/thin carpets and external street mess (piles of vomit outside), giving an overall slightly-below-average cleanliness impression.
Service
8.5
Generally positive: multiple guests called staff friendly and helpful, though at least one report criticized staff for poor handling of a security/police request — overall service is a strong point with an isolated serious concern.
Location
9
Strongly positive for transport/access: repeatedly praised for proximity to the train station and central area; some guests disliked the city centre itself, but the hotel's location relative to transport is a clear asset.
Room Quality
6.5
Negative trend: multiple comments about small, cramped rooms, old/run-down appearance, thin carpets, single beds and odd cheap decor; also missing in-room fridge for some — room quality is noticeably below expectation.
Amenities
6.8
Mixed to below average: breakfast variety noted positively, but recurring issues with parking availability/complexity, lack of refrigerator in rooms and limited disabled access reduce the amenities score.
Value for Money
7.2
Mixed perceptions: several guests described it as good value while others felt it was not great value for what was paid; overall middle-ground but slightly positive for price-conscious travelers.
Food and Beverage
8.9
Generally positive for breakfast (good variety), but some operational issues noted (dinner/service times late for families). Breakfast quality lifts this category overall.
Overall Experience
7.7
Decent and trouble-free for many guests with friendly staff and a convenient location, but tempered by room condition, parking difficulties, road noise and at least one serious staff-handling concern — overall a mid-to-upper average stay.

Lovely staff, very accommodating and friendly. The room was good and the breakfast was lush, very happy I chose ibis
Pros:

It was in a good location, close to a restaurant that we liked and the location of our evening plans

Cons:

I didn’t see too much parking available on site, we managed to get a space consistently but I was worried that we might not get one when we returned to the hotel.

Cheap and comfortable.

Located in a central location 5 minutes walk from the main high street, the hotel was modern and very clean, with very friendly staff. 24 hour parking is available subject to space, and train parking is near as an alternative. Decent breakfast available onsite.

Cons:

Carpet was a little tired due to wear and tear.

Graduation Visit September 2026
Pros:

Staff kindly allowed us to park our car for 24 hours so we were able to attend our son's graduation at the nearby theatre without moving the car.
Rooms have everything you need.
The location is excellent for train and city
Excellent Blackout curtains
Breakfast is great

Cons:

We got there early on arrival to make sure we got a parking space. I know they are limited so maybe that could be an improvement?
But not the criticism on anybody
