The staff were great. There was hardly any parking for a hotel. The bathroom drawers and cupbiard under the sink wasn't cleaned. The hot water ran out the evening before we checked out. So had ton have cold showers.

All facilities are okay but you will be lucky if everthing is working during your stay. I had bad experience of getting locked in the bathroom at night and had to tackle with non-English speaking staff to break open the door. Adding to it the next morning we didnt had water supply for the entire hotel rooms, big commotion at the reception and the lady receptionist was very cool about the happenings, not even apologetic about what was going on... What else would you expect out of a holiday stay booking in 2026

Liked: Cleanliness
Room clean and spacious. Bed like a sponge too soft, pillows very thick/ high gives you neck ache. Breakfast should be missed. Cold bacon and beans, cold dried up scrambled egg. Low quality juice, instant coffee. Toastee and kettle don't work at the same time as it trips the fuse on the electric extension lead they are plugged into.

1 night's stay, 2pax - good, can be better Rooms were clean & spacious - pillows were good quality, beds were a little too soft but that's just personal preference. Amenities were good, standard fare -bathroom was again spacious & clean, pretty ample space for one room. Staff were nice, though older female was more attentive on exit than the young male that initially greeted us on entry. Continental Breakfast this morning - basic, have had better elsewhere; attention to detail & presentation would help here. Overall, 7/10 - would stay here again, but at a push.
