Room No. 7 very tired and dated. Mattress so uncomfortable. En-suite had bad smell, not the best hotel stay this year. Didn’t expect too much but was a let down. Check-in and staff all fine.

Just stayed for a night so hard to form an educated opinion on the hotel. It was clean, probably could do with some modernisation but at this price it was definitely adequate. The staff and the food were excellent though

Excellent hotel for attending a wedding

Very good location for the wedding and a reasonable rate for the night. Very comfy bed and good shower. The pub lunch was very tasty and excellently cooked, fish and chips and scampi were delicious. The car park at the back was welcome as limiting parking in the town.

OK, the venue is not going to be The Savoy. It is basic an ideally placed to get around the town, which I found very pleasent. Parking is good and no problem. However, parts of the room we stayed in were less than adequate. Draws missing and broken, and then put at the back of the room. The condtion of the furniture was of very poor condition. But, what annoyed and frustrated me the most was there was no remote for the TV. When leaving we asked one of the cleaners where it was, as we may have not found it. NO, they told me it was stolen, but not replaced. Its a shame, as the shower room was very clean. The beds were OK, and the sheets were very clean. Would I stay there again? Yes I would, as the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
