Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There are no staff or office onsite. Check in is at the pub nextdoor when the very busy waitstaff can get to you. We have a small child and were placed in a room above the security door so all night and morning we were woken to the door slamming shut, however there was no one to ask about as above (no hotel staff). From check in and duration of stay, the soap and shampoo was never filled and they only cleaned the room once. We also only recieved 2 towels despite booking for 3 people. The location is in a car park of fast food shops. I do not suggest staying with children.

You go to the restaurant/bar next door to check in. Good food but a bit strange to go to the other building first. Place was definitely not a five star, but once we got past the initial shock it turned out to be good for the price. No microwave or refrigerator. I would definitely stay there again to save money.

Clean, comfortable & did the job for £50 per night

Clean, comfortable and did the job for £50 per night. Only slight negatives…there was only one set of towels for a twin room (fatherland teenage son booked), kitchen had limited food options due to kitchen issues (thankfully plenty of places to eat in the immediate vicinity. Just one more little point…at check out, was not asked if everything was ok.

Adequate stay

The room was reasonably clean. It obviously hadn’t been used/cleaned recently as there was a light layer of dust over the kettle & hairdryer. I like that they offer a difffuser with the hairdryer. It was an okay location and clean & tidy enough that I would stay again. It was a little tired. But nothing problematic
