Super clean place to stay with very friendly staff!
Pros:

All the staff were extremely friendly and the room was very clean. Place had a nice feel to it! It was an ideal location for visiting the Business Park for the week.

Cons:

Paying nearly £700 for a 5-night stay felt enough without having to pay an additional £15 per night for breakfast (I'm not on company expenses)...so opted to go to Lidl some mornings.
