Not a disabled friendly hotel but staff were good

I was staying at the hotel to attend a family function. One in my party was my mother who is disabled. I am disappointed that no-one from the hotel replied back to an email I had sent them for a room with limited stair climbing. They don't have a lift. We had arrived late after a tiring 5 hour journey, checked in only to find out they allocated a 2nd floor room which mean't asking a disabled person to walk 2 steep flight of stairs which is not acceptable. Teresa was a massive help and adjusted the room allocation for my mother to stay on the 1st floor. A big shout there - thank you. Jamie was a massive help also for accomodating requests late in the evening. A big shout here too - thank you.

This hotel isnt fit for purpose. Hotel is clearly old and in much need of a complete refurb or even better still, knock it down! Abandoned football ground next door completely derelict and area doesnt exactly feel safe as signs all in car parks warning of crime. You couldnt pay me yo stay in this place again! Expedia, I would take this off your list now as the photos you've used dont show this hotel in its true light.

Average Hotel

Had to call a number on arrival as there was no one at reception when i arrived during the day. My room had everything i needed including a fan as my room was hot. There was a horrible odour in my room which smelt like cigarettes and the bathroom smelt of drains. The bed was comfortable and i slept well. Unfortunately i woke to lots of insect bites.

Ok hotel if you don’t like good service or helpful

I had to call reception at 9.20 as suddenly a smell of a drug was coming into my room. The receptionist said she would come and investigate as I believed it to be coming from the room next door. Nobody came! I called again and the reception line just rang out. The smell was making me feel uncomfortable. I have had to use a quarter bottle of perfume to try and disguise the small

Big family room, staff super helpfull and nice. Quiet, safe parking. However, no air conditioning in the room. And oh boy was it cooking in the room. Even if they provide a spare fan. We jist couldnt go in the bathroom during the day it was litterally a sauna. Would go back in cold months but not in summer. We would pay extra for air con and fridge if available

This may be an isolated case, but over the past three days I had to visit reception twice to have my key reprogrammed, as it stopped working. Also, on Saturday night, the music played for far too long and made it difficult for me to get to sleep and rest properly before my competition.
