The staff were all friendly and helpful and there are no complaints there! The surrounding area wasn’t the best and there was nowhere close to go for food etc. The hotel is being redecorated which is great, however the room we stayed was either still in the process or had just been finished as there were broken and stained ceiling tiles, the shower and bathroom floor were not clean and paint spills were very noticeable. The layout made it seem like everything was just shoved in and the radiator covered by a desk. We kept seeing what appeared to be blue flashing lights similar to emergency vehicles throughout the night which alongside the local area didn’t help us in feeling safe. We did discover that the blue lights were security lights. The access to the disabled parking space was blocked by a skip and work vans were taking up space making parking difficult The cost was low budget but you can still have high standards

Staff were not very welcoming, almost dismissive but helpful in the end so that was good. Rooms are not as picturesque as shown or very clean but bedding was absolutely fine. Lacked towels, no bath mat for leaking shower tray but the water was hot! Plenty of toiletries etc. Could make a tea or coffee but no water, nothing in vending machine and nowhere around to buy anything so go prepared! You are in the middle of a heavy traffic area and no facilities. Beds / pillows are not comfortable unless you like it beyond firm and with the surrounding noise / from the roads etc. just forget getting any sleep. It’s fine for a pit stop but nothing more.

Ok……Where do i start….This isn’t a dig at the people that worked there but when we turned up it was obvious the painters had been in because of the smell. When we looked at our rooms they were uninhabitable & there was a crazy man wandering the corridor in just hes pants !! I had two of my daughter with me & both myself & Ruby have asthma ! We immediately booked somewhere else & I’ve been trying to get my money back on the two nights but nobody has got back to me other than this site to say everything was above board……Well it wasn’t !!! I wont be using this site or obviously the hotel again.

Bed bugs made us not stay

Came over to stay the night for GNR in the family room, as we were 5 people. * Bathroom stank, we even bought our own air freshener. * the bathroom didn't have a lock * At least one of the blankets was not clean with marks * nit pick: the bathroom did need some modernisation * to top it of there were loads of bed bugs, which resulted us in leaving the hotel and drop my family back home in a 2 hr drive, and ended not staying We're not fussy people but the bed bugs was the key issue that made us leave. But I listed all the issues we faced, so that if can help others. It was suggested that the manager would call, but nothing Nevertheless the staff were very good, and cooperative

To avoid abuse on a late night bus I stayed here and didn’t sleep a wink all night . Homeless people were given temporary accommodation and the room I was given was dated and had a funny smell . This hotel is like a can of cheap beans it does what it says on the tin .

Express Hotel, Express Service.

The room and en-suite were clean. The bed was firm and comfortable and the sheets were clean. The staff are first class and happy to help. Only one personal complaint, the area outside the window is the smoking area and with it being hot, I had to keep the window open which meant the smell of tobacco and weed would fill the room and the loud conversations were annoying. I am although happy to recommend the hotel.
