Not the warmest reception experience I’ve had…a bit efficacious. The room needed a clean by me, but I am quite fussy. A nice facility very near the motorway which could be great with a little more attention to detail

I felt that there were a few things that could improved, the breakfast was lovely, but I felt that there weren't enough staff, there was no milk, tables weren't set up, no butter on tables, I literally had to ask for more milk to put on my cereal, buttter to put on my toast, cutlery to eat it with, a glass for my juice, juice to put in my glass. Also the shower in room 340 on had one temperature and that was boiling! It would not cool down, so much so that we couldn't have a shower. The staff were lovely and helpful when asked for things, I just felt little things could improve the overall feel for customers

The breakfast took ages, the staff couldnt accommodate the amount of guests. Cooked breakfast came and slow and was plated on cold plates. Breakfast was really poor. The rooms decor was very dated, we had a double deluxe. There was only one towel for a room with two guests. The show screen didnt protect the water from running onto the bathroom floor, the bathroom floor was covered in water. The shower screen was placed on the wrong side of the bath handle.

The property location was fine for my needs. The restaurant and bar area was very nice, but the hotel in certain areas is a bit tired and worn. Overall it was a decent enough hotel for the price that I paid. Excellent staff that were very helpful particularly in the restaurant/bar.

Rooms very tired looking, wet carpet due to a leak and made the room smell. Wasn’t picked up during daily room service (stayed 4 nights) and when I reported it, there was no apology or thanks. Reception staff not friendly however I couldn’t fault bar/restaurant staff and conference staff, their attentiveness is the reason I will return for meetings only
