Just ok
Outside appearance looks very dated. Lobby is better but the rooms are very dated and in need of freshening up. Check in was slow, not enough staff working. Room is basic and bathroom was very shabby. They all need a good freshen up. We didn’t eat in the hotel but went to the bar for drinks. Drink choice was good but service was poor. Nobody behind the bar and 3 people looked at us and still didn’t come to serve!

Great location. Big comfy bed. But hotel is very tired, bathrooms are awful. Staff not helpful or friendly. Breakfast was absolute chaos. You check in online but still had to queue for 20 minutes to get room key.

Having stayed here before we rebooked for our overnight - The check in process took far too long - I had a message to see when I'd planned to arrive - once in the hotel I was confronted with a queue of 8 people.... i noticed there was a person behind the many check in desks appeared to do nothing to shrink this queue.... the hotel needs so work to bring it to the standard they are claiming to be.

A good base for a short break
Room was comfortable and good standard of cleanliness. Staff were friendly and check-in went smoothly. Breakfast room was busy but fair level of choice. Reasonable value as a base for a two night stay, would use again.
