Not a great stay but breakfast ladies were lovely
Dated hotel, rooms very small. Bath is not a bath, luck if you can kneel down in it. Free drinks, crisps and KitKat in the room nice addition but reflected in the price of the room. Bed very lumpy and uncomfortable and pillows very hard. Evening meal - had chicken burger, was ok but nothing special. Bar staff friendly but were more interested in talking to each other. Breakfast - typical hotel breakfast, again nothing special, no nice additions but ladies working on shift were very kind and friendly. Checkout was smooth and quick. Lady asked how my stay was, I replied my bed was very uncomfortable and she replied oh was it and continued to give me my reciept. Clearly not interested. Would I stay again? Probably not, lots of hotels in the same area including Hilton doubletree, which are very comparable in prices but are more attentive and offer those nicer touches.

Hit and miss
The staff here were amazing and nothing was too much trouble but everything else was lacking. Every part of the hotel past reception and the bar was very tired looking. Chunks of paint were missing in the rooms and in the corridors. The carpet was as stained and worn out as it could be. The bathroom was made to be so the you could hardly turn around in it because of the world’s biggest shower cubicle and sink which made it almost claustrophobic. The pool and “spa facilities” were fine apart from the timetable of frequent long periods you are unable to use the because of swimming lessons. Also the jacuzzi broke down during the stay so I was only able to use it once. Overall if you are looking to make a quick stop with children this place would probably be good but I don’t feel the price was reflected in the quality of the hotel.

Tired looking hotel and no cupboard door on mini fridge which is right at the end of the bed so bright light and noise of it kept us awake all night. Told duty manager on check out, who said sorry about that and offered nothing more! If that was a premier inn you would be immediately offered a refund!

Disgruntled.
The shower room was so small i had to straddle the toilet so that i could close the door, i had to close the door because it blocked the entry in to the shower when it was open. The bar served me a pint of lager and a bag of pipers crisps for £9.10 . The crisps cost £2.30 . The total price included an 85p "gratuitie" that I was not told about until I had paid by card. They pointed the card machine at me so that I couldn't see the price. I was probably to trusting, but you don't expect to be robbed by a company like this. There was also a derelict staff house on the site!
