Great value for money. My room smelt of cigarette smoke which was a shame. Breakfast was good but the coffee was one of the worst I’ve had EVER.

The hotel is now let down by the quality of the rooms. Hotel rooms are now tired and facilities such as showers over the bath belong to a bygone era. However food and staff were great.

The staff were very welcoming kind and accomodating of our needs. We enjoyed the simplicity and cleanliness of the place! The only downside which was definitely not a major was the pool was a little green! Other than that it was awesome and we would stay again if we’re ever in the area :)

Large slightly dated hotel. Clean rooms. We had parking outside our rooms. Friendly reception. Pool and dining area were closed. Large sports type bar attached with good bar food. This was popular with locals and truckers staying in adjacent car park. However, it was quiet. Practical hotel for travellers.

Although dated the facilities are fine for the price. The bed was comfortable and clean, as was the unit. Staff that I interacted with were friendly and helpful. The bathroom could do with an upgrade, particularly the shower.
