My room didn't have a fan in it. However, my friends did and they said they'd run out of fans. Housekeeping was annoying and kept banging on the doors, I left my fire stick there yet housekeeping claimed it wasn't there

Dated but very clean room and pretty comfortable and airy. Convenient location. We were at a seminar which started at 8.30am, so sadly missed out on the included breakfast and no option for anything else like a packed lunch. All in all, decent value for money

Disliked: Amenities
Very central and close to many eating places . Hardly any hotel parking , but luckily found somewhere nearby . It’s barely a 2 star hotel. , and really does need money spent on it . However the restaurant staff had a lovely welcoming manner , and the breakfast was great.

A hidden gem. Our room had been recently refurbished and had a comfy bed, decent tv, and a squeaky clean bathroom. The room is spacious and has new carpeting. Staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was freshly made to order and excellent. Great value. Would definitely stay again if ever in the area. It’s obvious that the owners take pride in their business. Oh yes, and there’s a pub attached for a nice cold one after a long days travel.
