Adequate for the purpose but not as good as other Holiday Inns or Premier Inns
Pros:

Breakfast was reasonably good as regards cooked food although the staff were constantly playing catch up. good selection of fruit. Room a bit smaller than other Holiday Inns we have used.

Cons:

Prices at the bar were high and service at the bar slow. Understaffing?

Well worth it, and will do it again.
Pros:

The whole experience from stepping in the door was really good, friendly and helpful staff. the food was good, the room was good, and very quiet, which my wife asked for. On the whole a very enjoyable stay.

Cons:

Could do with softer pillows. this is very minor.

Great value for a comfortable and nice relaxing getaway
Pros:

Room wasn't huge but it was all we needed and it was clean. Bed was good and comfortable, that staff were pleasant and it was a very nice and quiet time which helps when you need to sleep. Overall, a very positive and it isn't my first time staying and won't be my last

Cons:

All was very good, can't fault anything, especially for the price you pay
