Stayed overnight prior to flying early next morning, it was great, staff were helpful and friendly, breakfast before 6.30am is continental not cooked, but still nice and plentiful. I’d definitely recommend and stay again.

Good for solo female travellers

As a solo female traveller, I particularly liked the friendliness of the staff - from check-in to dining - and I felt very safe there. I had a very good experience throughout.

Fairly close to the airport, friendlly staff but my actual room was filthy. Horrible stench coming from bathroom drains. Dusty surfaces and dirty sofa. I wouldn't stay here again.

Not happy

When I booked the hotel, Hotels.com advised that parking was available and I got there they charged me £14.00 for the night advising that Hotels.com should have advised me on that which they did not. Staff were not friendly and they just handed the keys no other info. I had to ask for breakfast time, where restaurant was etc etc. The restaurant was located in the lobby which was not nice at all.
