Wooden floorboards creaked every time someone walked past the room. Doors slamming, bar music very loud, compressor outside my room, A19 traffic very loud. Worst nights sleep ever. Very noisy hotel. Room not made up during the day. Had 3 wet towels on the second day. Won’t be staying again.

The food/staff and drinks were AMAZING!! Will 100% be back to use the restaurant. The hotel part could be equally as good with a little investment. The beds are awful. So uncomfortable and squeak and creak with every breath you take! The room was tidy and clean but very tired. Towels had holes in them. And the doors were very loud when they closed. Very loud. Definitely recommend the restaurants. And even the hotel but bear in mind the beds are not great.

Overall the stay was good however just a couple of points 1: had to wait at reception although the restaurant was busy; 2: couldn't fill the kettle from the sink had to use the bath; 3: lack of extra pillows only one extra we did ask but non given and 4: coat hangers in the wardrobe Excellent food in the restaurant and all staff were very friendly and polite

Arrived to no receptionist and had to ask in the restaurant. Found out they don’t serve breakfast anymore even though it says in info that it does. The rooms are very tired but clean enough, there were 13 plug sockets so can’t complain about that and there was no milk on the hospitality tray. Evening meal was fantastic but felt a little rushed.

The restaurant was brilliant. Beds comfy. Unfortunately there was black mould on the ceiling. And there was some sort of drainage outside the window so it wasn't the best view and smell. The price was very reasonable though so I guess you get what you pay for.

Poor

We were very disappointed with the fact that there was no room service even though we were there for four days. There was no plug in the sink, only one cup and bottle tops under the bed. The food was ok if you liked eating in a disco!!! On the other hand the staff were very friendly but we could not recommend this hotel.

You get what you pay for

There was very little staff presence. Took ages to go and find someone to check in. The room and bathroom were clean but the previous guests takeaway rubbish was in the cupboard in the room which stunk the room out. No one was around to check us out so we just left. I guess you get what you pay for.

First given a room with either chocolate or something trodden into the carpet. I then was given another room no towels no lamp no shower gel ect. Only a almost empty liquid soap , toilet had never seen bleach. The unmanned reception had the phone ringing constantly on loud speaker even woken early hours to the phone constantly ringing. Never again. However the restaurant food was absolutely spot on , absolutely brilliant. I'd definitely go back for food but not to stay over.

Stayed at the windmill on many occasions, room 5 we had and it was absolutely freezing, asked a member of staff when heating would come on he said 5pm and gave us a small heater, the heating didn't come on, most of the night we were freezing and they brought us another heater. We only had 2 bath towels no hand towels so they were wet and couldn't get them dry, took 2 hours for more towels. Only one extra pillow instead of 2 , ya couldn't sit on the toilet comfortably because the toilet paper holder was right next to it on the wall. The curtains didn't match, we couldn't connect to the wifi. As I said Been there about 8 times now and it's really put me off going again.

We came from Newcastle and stayed the night. We wanted to try the monster sharer and it did not dissapoint. The food was cooked to perfection and very tasty and the waiting team were superb, our drinks were always topped up and they were always making sure we were ok. The restaurant was super busy and there was not one time i didnt see a queue out of the door. I was a bit apprehensive when i saw how busy it was but the whole team had it running like clockwork. The rooms are not expensive at all and would of cost more in taxis so we decided to stay the night. A few minor flaws.. there is no bar area to just have drinks, we like to relax and unwind before dining but giving how popular the food is here they need all the tables they can get, 2 the hotel stands alone and nothing else near by so driving is essential. 3 Just 1 pillow each which were very flat so we both woke up with stiff necks however like i said minor issues. Would definelty come back and stay.

This property is dated and dirty Was left standing at reception and eventually had to go and find staff Was given a key to our room it was dirty and smelly cigarettes had been smoked in the room the base of the bed was stained also it wasn’t a nice experience just walking into the room. The staff did try and sort a solution for us but we declined and when to premier inn just up the road did get our money back a few days after thank you for that this hotel needs to get a cleaner and redecorated or just keep it for contractors as they are the ones smoking in your rooms

The bedroom was very clean. Bathroom needed lots of tlc - especially the mirrors but it all worked. Only three (poor quality) pillows - it’s a double room, surely 2 pillows each! There were two teacups, one very big one very small. Only one milk supplied. Kettle had water in it. No-one on reception - had to go and find someone in the restaurant. Staff and restaurant were lovely.
