Pros:

No shampoo or washcloth. One towel for two people. No Kleenex. Very basic room for £150 is not worth it. Find any other hotel that at least offers shampoo.

Decline of Premier Inn
Pros:

We have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions but sadly it has declined and needs a thorough update. We will not be staying here until improvements are made.

Eda’s exceptional service
Pros:

Really great hotel. Service outstanding. Food served on hot plates and really great value for your money.
Eda on Tuesday served me for breakfast and was there again for dinner. She is exceptional at service and an utterly nice person too. Having to cover the bar and to serve everyone’s food, she was outstanding.

Dirty Hotel Covered in Scaffolding
Pros:

Another Premier Inn that has gone downhill.

No parking next to the hotel or anywhere to drop off your bags. Road outside is blocked off and the hotel is covered in scaffolding.

Room was grim, dirty bedside tables which hadn't been cleaned, dubious mold and marks around the shower screen in the bath. Carpets with stains on them and the veneer peeling off the desk in the room.

Plus heating controlled from reception. You have to come downstairs and beg at reception for them to turn it up as they keep the temperatures low to save on heating.

Once upon a time Premier Inns used to be good and now they are run by a skeleton staff with little care for the customers experience. Will probably be my last time booking one as this is the third one I've stayed in this year that was sub par.

As you would expect
Pros:

Everything was as you expect a premier Inn to be. Car Park was heaving with people going to the football match just parking anywhere. Check in was a little slow but that was due to everyone arriving at the same time. The poor receptionist did not have time to breathe. Otherwise a good stay.

Staff were top class and so helpful
Pros:

All staff went out of their way to provide a good service. Very helpful and obliging and could not have been more pleasant. A nice comfortable room which was warm when the heating was put on. Ideally situated in the town centre, breakfast was excellent and the meal deal was well priced. Sirloin steak could have been improved but that wad the only downside.
