This is a hotel that has seen better days. On arrival there was nobody at the reception desk and we were left waiting for 20 minutes for a staff member to check us in. The room we booked was an executive suite for us and or 11 year old daughter, however the sofa bed was so uncomfortable with unpadded springs that all three of us spent the night in the king size bed. The hotel is undergoing some undergoing some refurbishment, which it badly needs, however the drilling and hammering at 11PM on a Sunday night was completely unacceptable. We paid extra for breakfast and honestly wish we’re had not bothered. The food had been left under heated lights for quite some time and was tough and greasy. The hot drink machine was broken so no hot drinks were available. All in all it was not worth the money. It was such a shame to see how this hotel has deteriorated over the past 10 years since we last stayed.

Our room was musty smelling and there was a giant wooden beam next to the bed with barely any room to walk past without walking into it during the night if you needed to use the bathroom. The bed was soft and small. Not a good stay.

Two night stay best Western plus?
Check in fine Room nice Evening meal poor. Ordered fish and chips which came from the poachers pub as kitchen closed It was burnt. I struggled the even get a lnife into the batter. I showed the staff member who said about getting another but by the time he asked it was to late as partner had almost finished. Still charged the 18.50 for it. The breakfast was ok. Croissants not cooked in midlle and fried eggs seen better days. Best part room

Tired and a poor breakfast
The place felt very tired, and a shadow of it's former self. The breakfast was over-priced. I had to pester to receive a fork, sugar, and milk - all things you should expect to be available at breakfast.

Appreciate the property maybe in the process of refurbishment but this should be highlighted upfront. extremely damp and musty smell especially in hall and stair wells and lifts out of action. If i was hotel owners i would also look at quality of work being done and poor paintwork and lack of attention to detail like replacing worn stained carpets damage woodwork like skirtings door frames or architrave will let the refurbishment down. Breakfast was adequate but again quality not the best and cooked breakfast elements not kept warm enough. thankfully only 1 night stay and chosen purely for location to the places we needed to visit.

The first floor room we were allocated was just above the pub, and on Friday night was VERY noisy until past 10pm. We could feel it through the floor. As well, we had electrical problems - the mini fridge tripped out the power when switched on. When we asked, we were able to move to a quiet room on the 3rd floor. This room had a very soft bed - to the extent we rolled into the middle. There was no blind for the roof light, but that didn’t matter much because the window itself was so dirty. On the other hand, the staff were very pleasant, and the fitness room was clean and well-equipped. On the whole not a brilliant hotel since it claims to be 4 star.

Maintenance was poor. Complained every day (3 days) about TV not usable. Bathroom floor grout broken up sharp and cut foot - no response. LEDs flickering in bathroom - probably due to cheap fittings. HOWEVER - you get what you pay for - cheapest hotel in the area - Food was excellent - not so cheap!. Would I stay there again ? Yes.

I wouldn't stay again
Large room (allegedly suite) but it was in need of tlc. The room had single glazing which was broken as well as secondary glazing also broken and hanging off. Curtains wouldn't shut and we're hanging down. However, the reason this is relevant is that we were directly above an independent pub not owned by the hotel. The music was constant until 12:10 midnight when it stopped for approximately 5-10 minutes before starting again. To say this music was loud is an understatement, we were singing along and could hear it word for word, tbh we could physically feel the music vibrate. The shower wouldn't work and the bath took over 10 mins to get hot water. It was badly stained along with other marks on the ceiling. There was no restaurant in the hotel, instead a man hovering offering to get us food... The bar staff were pleasant but unable to pull a pint and charged us varying rates each round despite asking for the same... I would recommend finding somewhere else!

Lovely comfortable room although a bit dated and stained in some areas. Staff very friendly and helpful. The bathroom was big but the water only lukewarm. No plug points near the bed not helpful when charging a phone and you need an alarm One issue was the noisy bar outside our window which wasn’t ideal with kids
