Not recommended
Pros:

The restaurant attached was nice.

Cons:

I felt I'd get dirtier using the shower than not. Bathroom shabby. Paintwork was shoddy in while room. Room in a sketchy stairwell with battered doors. Carpets dirty. Asked for a £20 cash deposit for key but no prior warning this was needed.

Needs a refit/upgrade, nothing like the pictures
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The room we stayed in could do with a serious upgrade. Painted walls, double glazing (room 107 road side) we could hear everything from cars to drunken yobs. Now having a special needs child she was frightened when an argument broke out outside our door, screaming, shouting & swearing. My husband confronted them and he started kicking our door. I had to personally call the hotel and ask the receptionist to get them to leave. An hour later he was back. I reported this to management in the morning (he was asked to leave the hotel)

Pros:

The staff were fab and couldn't be anymore helpful. The rooms was big enough and clean enough for us to stay. Booked for 7 days and coming back next year. The restaurant there served good food and the breakfast was nice too.
