Meh
Bedroom a bit drab and beige, disappointed to find the pool had been closed. Best bit is the restaurant in the lobby.

The staff was so friendly and wonderful. But housekeeping was not good at all. Also, there was a dog outside of the hotel that barked all night long and lots of people partying that you can hear. Great location and staff but not great for a family stay.

Ok but…
All good except, and its a big except, on our floor there was a pervasive stench of cannabis - this in a non-smoking hotel. Shameful.

Lovely stay with fabulous food and welcoming staff
The Clayton is a welcoming hotel. We had booked a deluxe double room and ended up having an executive room which was lovely. We are in the restaurant and the food and service was excellent. The rooms were comfortable and lots of choice for breakfast. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would come back again

Assumed that this would be a top class hotel. It was average at best. Windows in room broken, tiles missing in bathroom, mould around the bath etc. It was adequate, but nothing more.
