The photos make the property look quite modern and nice. However, the bathrooms are dirty and the corridor is dimly lit and you can hear people in the other rooms. Didn’t feel very safe.

Nice hotel and convenient

Staff all friendly, food was Ok, room was nice. Not sure on the overall black theme going on as came across very dark especially the black light switches making it difficult to find them in the dark. Overall though, happy to use again.

Lovely big room with a roomy shower. Reception lady on her own so was checking in and service at the bar, but no issues. Restaurant opposite just a 2min walk, food there was lovely. Hotel is CARD only. Parking is £5.

Edward

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
No hot water for the duration of my stay. The staff didn’t seem to care or even apologise. The full English breakfast and coffee were the worst I’ve experienced at a hotel. The room was ok but basic. The corridor to the rooms was very dark with low ceilings, it felt well worn and low quality. Parking is an extra charge which was a bit of a surprise for the location.
