Nice hotel. My only complaint would be it's distance from Taunton town centre. It was a £10+ taxi journey each way if you don't have your own car, and very little close by within walking distance, other than a Harvester restaurant. Although there is a Sainsbury's and a cinema/bowling alley a short drive or medium walk away.

Room was absolutely filthy. Crumbs all over the floor and under bed. Duvet too small for bed. Towels looked grubby and tired.

Good room, external low pitch hum

The room itself was good and what you would expect, sadly it was in a place where there's was a constant low pitch hum of an external fan or something. My partner didn't find it an issue but I didn’t get along with it.

For the price I paid, it’s was poor . The room was small and cramped. The breakfast was poor not enough choices and the food quality was poor. I had dinner Monday night the food was very bad everything was frozen and heated up in the microwave including the India Nan bead and price with a drink was £23.50 I told the waitress and she said sorry about that.
