A very tired and run down hotel

All staff were amazing, very helpful and friendly. However the hotel and facilities are very tired and run down. Corridors outside of the lifts had no lighting. The pool and and changing facilities are very old and outdated. Doors to the rooms are old, don’t fit to the floor which can’t be compliant with fire regulations, and let light and sound in and out. The breakfast was good and the restaurant area was lovely.

Lovely place

Staff superb. Clean and tidy. Sofa bed was the worst Ive ever slept on. £17 for one pint and a glass of wine is robbery. Lovely scenery round and about. Runcorn was surprisingly a lovely place. Would go again, but take my own booze and not have a Sofa bed option.
