Charged £243 so assumed it would be high end accommodation but was more like student digs/a hostel and would have found £100 too expensive.
The hotel and room was very tired, grubby and felt dirty. The windows were very difficult to open and the bathroom was so old, having a shower the nob came off so couldn’t switch it off. The walls were filthy and the whole suite needs completely ripping out and replacing. I feel like I’ve been charged the rate of a high end London hotel for an awful experience … so disappointed and feeling robbed
Comfortable and well appointed room. Would stay again.

Clean and basic hotel
Cleanliness was very good. This hotel is dated and seems to be a base for builders and other tradesmen.
The beds were very comfortable and a family room of a double and two proper single beds was welcome rather than converted sofa bed that is usually how family rooms are constructed. There was a wall mounted fan but this was not enough in our current hot spell of weather but we had additional fans in the car so didn't ask for more fans from staff.
Continental breakfast is buffet style but cooked breakfast needed to be ordered. However, cooked breakfast was very tasty. Orange juice was awful, tasting like the cheapest watered down variety. One young woman was running breakfast, she was excellent in every way. Dining room was very dated, the chairs were stained and looked very worn out.
Rooms have a normal sized fridge (not a hotel sized fridge) and microwave which was very useful.
WIFI was free and worked well. Parking was also free.
Surprised that when I returned my key cards to reception, they didn't ask how our stay was.
Fine accommodation for an overnight stay.
Only stayed for one night , comfortable bed clean room and bathroom but smelt as if someone had been smoking in the room and they had tried to cover it up. Only a problem if I opened the doors to the sink/microwave etc.
Breakfast ok but coffee cold and I was told to heat it up in the microwave, that's what it was there for!
Very friendly welcome from Keera in reception, who was eager to ensure we had an appropriately comfortable room for our age.
The bed was comfortable, the facilities convenient, the linen and towels all clean.
The staff are excellent. Beds are comfortable. But there is no double glazing and the decor in the rooms is very 1980s. I actually laughed out loud when I walked into the bathroom. The room was noisy and hot. It was difficult to sleep with the window open because of the road noise. Breakfast was only ok. But hotel is very convenient for walking to the university and the free parking was an added bonus.
This was great value for money. A Tesco Express is a 5 minute walk away for convenience. But because most guests have windows open, their doors SLAM shut!! It is loud, and not enjoyable late at night.
I was given a key to a room with someone in it, I woke the person up opening the door.
I felt so let down I did not stay and left the hotel, taking my children on the 6.5 hour drive home as I did not want to stay in the hotel.
I would like a full refund due to the above.
