The place feels like you’ve stepped back in time to the 1980s. Everything is dated.
The bed in room 23 was awful and made for an uncomfortable sleep.
Ok in terms of value.
Great value for money. Handy stop over, with easy parking. Staff were friendly and helpful. Brekkie was a lovely surprise. Bathroom wasn't overly clean and the mattress was a bit creaky. Would be ok if sleeping solo! Overall, very happy 😊
The location was excellent the staff was wonderful the breakfast was amazing I will always stay there & recomend it to eyeryone
One comment needs to be dusted in the rooms
Second stay here, very spacious and confortable rooms

Lovely lady at reception with great service.
Room is very dated. Shocking bed that creaked when I moved. Paper thin walls and kept awake most of the night by person next coughing/gagging.
