Hotel in desperate need of refurbishment.
The hotel is in desperate need of refurbishment. The bed was comfortable and the room ok. I would not stay again as the hotel is falling apart.

Comfortable enough
Hotel well allocated; plenty of space to park. The room with good furniture, large and very comfortable bed. The toilet also very large with space to put your personal toiletries.
The illumination was not very good and neither the wifi but enough to get by.

Over night stay
We only had an overnight stay and the room was satisfactory, the overall rooms are ready for new carpets the grout needs replacing in areas, but due to Covid and the current cost of living the people there do a good job. To employ another few staff at busy days on a temporary basis would be very beneficial to the permanent staff.

Awful premises - badly organised and poor customer service / staff.

Needs some TLC and could be lovely. Outside littered with cigarette butts...why not provide containers to put them in?
Staff very helpful.

Unfortunately I did not enjoy my staff here, it was unclean, the shower was broken and leaking.
I looked forward to breakfast, however it was very disappointing.

Cold showers!
No hot water for a shower in the morning. Staff couldn’t care less and were too busy eating their cooked breakfast when went to checkout

Shower at your own risk
Pretty Grim, I didnt even use the shower out of fear for my own health. Staff were apologetic when I complained but they had no other rooms available.

Not good
Very tired hotel. Is in need of a revamp. If a place to rest your head after a long drive is what you need … this will do… won’t stay there again but if it was the only place left at least now I know what it’s like. The staff were not that friendly ( especially the night staff) dirty room and bathroom. The only thing clean was the bed sheets. Pretty grim really

Good location but poor amenities - no TV in room. Main ceiling light only, no bedside lamps/table. Bins full from last resident and used dirty mugs still in the room. Replaced on request, but no TV as we were only staying for one night. Payment to use the car park was an extra.

First. When I came in and entered the room. The door was already open and the bed undone. The staff gave me no information. Simply gave me the key and told me the room number. And the noise you can hear from the room, from all the other rooms around, is insane. Overall, very negative.

Cheap and not terribly cheerful
It looks NOTHING like the photos and is very tired. Staff are all pretty disinterested and the bar area is very grubby. Saying that, the bed was comfy and a good location for us.
Bathroom had no mirror (but all the fixings left in the wall), no lid for the toilet seat.
Shower worked fine, the grout around the shower was like a student flat.
Altogether pretty poor, but breakfast at the cafe/coffee shop across the road was excellent.
