Perfect for a one night stay.
Pros:

Don't get me wrong, it's very basic. But I was so impressed. The bed was comfy (I did have my own pillows though, so I can't vouch for the pillows) and the shower was phenomenal. Best hotel shower I've had for pressure. For a one night pit stop, it was perfect! Even had smart TV with Netflix etc. It had M&S and a cafe very nearby too, if you don't want the ibis breakfast

Cons:

The toilet paper was awful

Somewhere simple to stay.
Pros:

Basic but easy to just bed down for the night. The staff were accommodating in my request for an accessible room.

Cons:

The room smelt strongly of cigarette smoking which caused me to feel nauseous.

Great place for a short stay if that's where you need to be.
Pros:

The room was excellent. Bijou, but very well designed for a short stay. Bar area good. Parking great and proximity to the Cherry Tree Farm that served excellent and great value food in the evening, a real bonus.

Cons:

Staff were great apart from when we arrived. Having checked in on-line, she informed us that particular IBIS doesn't support that, so we had to do a full check-in. She kept asking me to do something else when I was fully loaded with stuff, with no apology. Didn't offer us a second key. The lady who helped me later that evening when I needed the second key was a star.

Very pleasant
Pros:

An easy stay with an excellent breakfast.

Cons:

The number plate recognition actually degrades the security at the site, it was more secure when you were issued with a card!
