An acceptable place to stay, but very badly organised
Pros:

Acceptable

Cons:

The local staff thought you hadn't been paid, but Booking.com confirmed that you had and aplogised for their error in saying that you had not.
The car park company have asked me to pay a parking penalty when the advert quite clearly states that parking is free for residents.

Nicely situated away from the busy road.
Pros:

A large comfortable room. Nice and quiet and restful. Ideal position for exploring the lovely places around, like Haworth, Saltaire etc.

Cons:

The pillows were a bit lumpy. I wish I had brought my own. It would have been handy to have had drawers, for longer stays to be able to unpack my case.

Dissapointing
Cons:

The bed was exceptionally uncomfortable, pillows were hard, sheets were stiff and felt odd. Overall cleanliness has terrible, especially the bathroom. Ironing board cover required so very fiddly to try use that. Dim lighting plus no light coming through when open curtains either due to all the condensation.

A bit too cheap and not so cheerful.
Pros:

Breakfast was basic but okay. I was very disappointed with the dinner menu as being vegetarian I only had two options…one of which I was later told wasn’t available. So my only option was a pizza. Which was clearly a cheap one bought at a supermarket.

Cons:

The cleanliness was bad, clumps of hair on the floor and in the bathroom. Everything was very tired and either needed a deep clean or completely replacing.
This hotel is in good need of some TLC.

Pros:

I’m not a breakfast person, but I took the opportunity due to the nature of my days activities, to have a breakfast. The choice of cereals, breakfast juices , tea and coffees was very good. The hot choices were very good, hot though warm plates would have helped keep the good warm, especially in a cool restaurant room. My only real gripe regarding the food, was regarding the crispy frilly fried eggs. As a former military chef, I appreciate the difficulties in frying lots of eggs and trying to keep them hot, the simple answer is not to fry as many at a time, especially when there is a list of people staying and dining and that number is held with the duty dining room staff
