Ok but average in a noisy area
Pros:

Clean bed and nice bedding. Also a nice manager. Car park on site at the back.

Cons:

Tiny teeny room, not worth the price. No teaspoon supplied. Wi fi is in and out, up and down. One teeny weeny bottle of shampoo. No body wash, just a small soap. Can't get in the back door from car park with lots of luggage. Not a great area if a solo female. Looks very run down from outside

Ok but fairly cheap
Pros:

Friendly manager

Cons:

You had to ask for the heating to be put on which took ages for the room to warm up and it was only the manager who could do it

Pros:

I had a nice stay at this hotel. The room was quiet, the bed was comfortable, and the room was warm and cosy. Although the night was very cold, the heating worked perfectly. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Cons:

The only thing I didn’t like was that breakfast wasn’t included, which would have made the stay even better. Overall, it’s a good place for a short stay, and I would recommend it.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The area is very sketchy, drug dealers around the hotel, the hotel is used as a halfway house for people who have just got out of prison (they live there) The room we were put in must of been the smallest they had.
