Drop off bay has fines for stopping

You can’t drive to the hotel without paying!!! We were very disappointed to get a £60 fine for dropping the bags. No one told us that the car drop off bay to drop the bags was inside the NCP pay area! So we got a £60 fine… After speaking to the hotel they said it wasn’t there problem and wouldn’t speak to NCP..

Humming noise in room. Checked air con, sockets etc… no! Gave up and rang down at 1am to be offered a new room when we were leaving at 4am. Asked them to check sound twice with no call back with further info from reception. Gave a polite review on check out to be told by a very disagreeable employee that we were offed a change. When I again explained the lack of info she said well what did you expect. No need to be rude and no, I won’t be booking again or giving positive review. Very upset!

We stayed to get a good night sleep before having a long haul flight. Unfortunately the bed was so uncomfortable, the room was so hot no air conditioning just a fan. The bedding is just like a marshmallow making you so hot and uncomfortable. Will never book this hotel again
