"Comfortable, clean room, very friendly staff and, amazingly, on on-site restaurant, the first we've come across at a Premier Inn! And the food at breakfast was excellent. The property location is a bit hard to get to, in the back corner of an industrial estate and not walkable, but still relatively convenient for the town."
