Comfy bed, not enough air in the room. Would still stay again (when the weather was a bit cooler.
Pros:

The bedroom was lovely and we all had a good sleep, it was ideal for what we wanted.

Cons:

The weather (which I appreciate can't be affected by the hotel) was crazy hot and our bedroom was way too hot, with only one fan and we were unable to open the window (which was broken).

Cons:

I stayed there between 14th to 16th July 2026.

1. The manager Hubet was rude. He was irritable when we asked questions about breakfast.

He was very keen to collect only money .

He didn't bother about changing the room despite I told him to change it on the second day .

He didn't encouraged us to watch TV in the bar , very rude .


2. I was given a very dirty and a very small room although I paid £ 232 for two nights.

3. Cob webs and spiders in the bathroom and in the ceiling of the room.

4. The bathroom sink was not cleaned , stained.

5 . windows couldn't be open despite it was a very hot day


6. The picture in booking.com didn't reflect the true size and the cleanliness of the room .

7. I was told by the staff Rachel that she will discuss with another manager and refund the money , but I haven't received any money back from them . Very disappointed

8. The hotel should be removed from the booking. Com website.

9. The hotel is far away from town , shouldn't be thos priced anyway

Adequate for purpose intended but would be unlikely to stay again
Pros:

Good location as going to Speedway at Northampton. Staff all very helpful

Cons:

Room was hot and windows not easy to open as sash but there was a fan. Skirting board and window could have been cleaner and always good to remove mould from bath silicone
