Overall excellent service but slightly let down by a lack of staff during the afternoon and evenings over a weekend. Limited menu for the restaurant. Superb breakfast service.
Very comfortable and well equipped rooms.
Nice upgraded room but needs a bigger bed. Staff at breakfast were very slow and often nowhere to be seen. Poached eggs took 15 mins and were hard on arrival. Nice hotel, good location, plenty parking. Just needs more attention by breakfast staff!
On arrival, there was nobody on the reception desk, and after waiting for a short while we had to go and find a staff member to check us in. The rooms whilst dated were clean and comfortable. Having booked a dinner bed and breakfast rate, we were disappointed to find that the dinner options were very limited, due to the hotel being refurbished according to a staff member. Breakfast buffet the following morning was fine, there was a good choice of hot and cold food. The coffee machine was out of beans though and once refilled would not work, which was disappointing. Overall a decent hotel, the main issue being the renovation and an apparent shortage of staff.
We had an issue with the shower head hose, but asked for maintenance to sort it. Which they did promptly which was very nice.
The ac didnt work our entire 5 day stay, which was very unfortunate, as it was incredibly hot.
We did not eat at the property, can not review that aspect.
Their were little cleaning things that could be attended to, such as someone hung banners in our room, and they could have been taken down entirely instead of leaving staples and buts of paper on the walls.
The bin bags for the garbage cans are very small, and you cant out much in them before the bin bag falls inside.
The tip outside was over flowing, with many pallets laying about. Which was unfortunate. But what can you do when you get a large delivery.
Still a nice friendly place to stay.
Good clean hotel which was ideally located for our trip.

Staff were very helpful, particularly front of house on 7th Feb, who sorted out the missing lampshade ( a bare bulb one side of the bed is not a great first impression) and the heating as the room was freezing on arrival.
He also ordered a taxi ( Alpha) 2 hours before our booking at The Anvil Theatre. Taxi didn’t arrive, he chased and they said 5/6 mins, still didn’t arrive, he called again and the taxi clearly hadn’t left, luckily we hadn’t drunk anything so we rushed to our car and drove ourselves, and ran from the car park, made it with 10 mins to spare.
Bed v comfortable, food good. GB News playing at breakfast not ideal, a bit far right and racist for many peoples taste, perhaps go more neutral with BBC?
