I've stayed here a few times in recent years and always enjoyed my stay, but i was disappointed in the overall condition of the hotel this time. The rooms are looking a little tired now and in need of a face-lift.

Hotel is great, rooms are big, clean and spacious! Good quality bed and furniture. Shower and bathroom are a high standard. Only issue which is out of hotels control would be the area! Could do with some renovations. Hotel is close to all amenities and train station!

Late check-out of 3pm on Sunday is amazing. Location good but roadside rooms a bit noisier with windows open. Not outstanding but for the price-point this really is a great find. Didn't eat so can't comment but not a bad little menu and not too badly priced from what I saw. Had a 'VIP' room which guaranteed the late check-out but I don't know if the rooms were any better as I didn't see the standard ones. But my room was top floor which is always a bonus for me because no thumping from above.
