Was a bit unfriendly. Shower had mouldy seals. Lights in room ceiling was out. Heater wasn't working so had to use fan heater. Was noisy. Shame because it was nice and quiet other than that, despite the strong smell of drugs...room 322

Roughly what you would expect. Room, service all OK. Various pizzas on the menu for dinner, but not available. Expensive ev charging. Rooms ridiculously hot for December. Breakfast not worth the price.

Okay but lacks class.
It’s a nice, clean hotel and good value. However the breakfast seemed expensive if you purchase on the day. The staff were friendly but lacked a bit of professionalism. Maybe just inexperienced. The eating area is a bit clinical and unappealing. The entrance is around the back, next to the car park and therefore hard to find. It could be a great hotel if the restaurant was more luxurious and the entrance signposted.

Someone had stood outside my room smoking, ugh, and smelt in my room but i opened the window for a bit. Good night’s sleep, nice and warm.

Overall, a comfortable stay.
Overall the stay was good, very comfortable bed, very little noise inside the hotel, could hear some road noise though, breakfast okay. Only downside this visit was an unpleasant drain smell from bathroom (not noticeable with door closed).

Comfortable hotel, on the outskirts of Bury St Edmunds. We knew about the building works in the grounds up front, not an issue. The room was hot as the radiator would not turn right off. The shower was very poor, hot enough but lacked flow! On the up side the bed was comfy and the hotel rooms quiet.

Pleasant stay
Although the hotel was undergoing building work to increase capacity there was no intrusion from mess or noise. The only downside was the noise from the A14 trunk road which runs close by, as due to unseasonal hot weather required the window needing wide opening for ventilation. Breakfast was ample with variety of choice. Requires a tidy up of the car parking area as it would appear that the builders are using it as well and leaving a lot of rubbish behind.

Overpriced. Nice staff. Warm and quiet hotel. Very tired and characterless building. Public areas poor. Bathroom was good but bedroom very basic and uninviting. Convenient location for main road access.
