Nobody at check in when we arrived so waited for 20 minutes outside. The receptionist later explained that she was also doing the rooms and there was no longer a device to let her know we were waiting, hotel needs to employ more cleaners! Very professional receptionists both morning and evening!

TVs in 2 rooms not working. Room cleaning not available “due to staff illness”. Lots of litter in car park. Derelict restaurant boarded up next door. Charges for car park. Main door locked at 4pm and I had to be let in - doesn’t suggest area is safe? 2 mile walk into town in very dull along a dual carriageway and nearest metro station 20 mins away. But clean and staff were pleasant.

As I pulled into the car park it dawned on me that I had stayed there before but it had been a Premier Inn back then. I am not sure why it was no longer part of that chain but it hadn't really changed. It was the same as it used to be. It was clean and tidy and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. One word of warning: On their website they say they are in walking distance of the city centre amenities such as the Emporium Theatre (which is why we were there). We used Google maps to plan our walk and when it suggested it would take 50 mins we decided that was a little too much of a stroll to the theatre and back. Other than that this is a very good, value for money, hotel with lovely staff.
