Clean and staff friendly, hotel needs a bit of TLC to be honest. Shower worked fine in the room on day one, next morning after a run there was no water and then intermittent bursts of cold water
Site was not well signed so thought I had arrived to a private property not the location of the hotel. Bathroom was really nice and modern but the rest of the room was not the same style. Unfortunately the fire alarm was set off during the night and no guests knew what the procedure was so this could be reinforced on arrival of future customers
I use this place a lot when away for work and it provides exactly what I need for that purpose

The staff were very nice. The room was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the lead for the kettle could only b plugged in if you took the plug out of the tv. But I believe they r addressing this. Also I couldn’t get terrestrial tv, but that was possibly me. I had to go through apps.
The bed was really comfy and the room was what ever temperature you wanted it to be. I would stay again.
Although it might b good if they get slow closing doors, as you do hear your neighbors

the Staff was very friendly, available and went above and beyond their duty to aid a senior couple, especially Mr. Iqbal. if we ever go back to UK, we would not hesitate to stay there again.
The rooms and facilities were in poor condition. It’s a good option as a transit hotel but not ideal for leisure stays. However, the staff provided excellent customer care, compensating for the shortcomings.
Very reasonable budget hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful. Small basic room but clean and tidy, decent bathroom with good size shower. Plenty of hot water. Overall, it suited me perfectly.

very clean brilliant shower room and highly helpful receptionist . a brilliant stay
The hotel had no cold water conditions very poor checking in poor the worse hotel I bern to since travelling over 40 years however was told by night security hotel closing down its a shame as if money pushed in there good be up and running again
Hotel needs urgent refurbishment
I thought I was in a concentration camp or an open prison with manor man bates the guy whom checked us in
This hotel has seen better days . Looks like it hasn’t had money spent on it for many years . Many rooms look like they’ve been abandoned. Outside is being used to dump equipment for road works eg signs cones
