Very clean. Staff were friendly and helpful. Check in was easy. Good value for money. Close to attractions but far enough away from the front to be quiet and trouble free. Great for families.

Hotel didn't look like pictures tiles were missing off steps leading up to the hotel the lift didnt always work had to walk to the 2nd floor wich i struggled to do as i use a walking stick. The bathroom was small it looked like there was blood on the inside off the bathroom door in the shape off 2 fingers earing on the floor kettle half boiled you had to hold it down to boil completely rooms werent cleaned while you stayed there. tea coffee sugar and milk didn't get replaced not all channels on tv worked the staff was friendly would not stay there again
We booked this hotel for 2 nights Fri- sun we had stayed here a few years ago and found it pleasant at the time,this time however within a few hours I was looking online for another hotel, we checked in at the appointed time of 3pm and found the room absolutely freezing the heating wasn’t on so I went and asked reception about the heating to be told they don’t heat the back part of the house in the week and gave us a fan heater they said it comes on around 6.30 it’s almost the end of October and it’s cold there was a lot of mould in the shower basin and no where really to store our toiletries there were 2 small shelves beside the beds but it couldn’t hold everything so we had to use our suitcase as a shelf again with the bathroom no where for toiletries so they stayed in our toiletries bag on the floor maybe I’m being picky but I didn’t fancy leaving them on the toilet basin the toilet and seat were very loose and shifted when sitting down the blinds didn’t come all the way so there was a gap at the side which let in too much light and mostly the shower was scalding hot it went from 38-30 but still we spent a good 15 minutes trying to regulate it to cooler but it didn’t happen there was only a sign warning us of the sink hot water it couldn’t be used, the heating still not on at 8pm still cold room I went back to ask to be told that she would leave a note she also said people always complain they’re cold but they still leave doors open as front door open

Room 48.. it was ok no major issues. The bathroom drains smelt badly but we put it down to no one been in it in a while. No heating and was cold. And no hot water. We wasn’t there to live in the hotel. So we coped with it
