Had a really nice stay. Weather was on the hot side so nice to have a air con room to cool off. Shame the seating area around the bar and where you eat food was air con as that was a bit uncomfortable to enjoy a relaxing time with a cold pint

I stayed at this hotel for two nights. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming, and the first night was wonderfully peaceful—I was able to work comfortably from my room and enjoyed a restful evening. However, the second night was quite a contrast. A large group of teenage girls, presumably from a school trip, arrived by coach and turned the corridors into what felt like a school playground. The noise—running, shouting, laughing—created a rather chaotic atmosphere more akin to a lively youth hostel than a hotel. I tolerated it until around 10pm, when I finally contacted reception. To their credit, the staff handled the situation swiftly and professionally. They raised the issue with the group's supervisors, and things settled down soon after. I really appreciated their responsiveness. On the plus side, the free parking and reliable Wi-Fi were welcome conveniences.

We have stayed at this hotel a number of times as it is conveniently located near to the university. The rooms are of a good standard. It would be nice to have bedside power sockets to charge phones etc.
