"Enjoyed the stay, bed was nice n comfortable and a working tv . Just basic inside , carpet had and decor had seen better days , said to be gold standard, i'd say bronze at best. The hotel in general was nice . Parking is not the best and £10 a night , but i suppose it's safe though. A lot to offer if you want to keep spending and a tad expensive. Weather made the stay better."

"On arrival, mid afternoon on a Saturday, bar tables were not cleared or wiped plus the floor could of done with a good sweep, on booking in we found the room to be of a good standard, we had dinner in the restaurant and the food was excellent, but again on getting refill drinks we had to ask for the used glasses to be removed. Coming down to breakfast Sunday morning, everything was great, the young man on duty making sure tables was cleared and wiped, breakfast items replenished and fresh coffee maintained, Well done him, Sundays roast was good but Monday morning things could of been a lot better, I asked if there was any tea spoons, and one was produced from behind the bar, sadly breakfast items were not replenished , and the area was not kept clean or tidy!!! Well done to the guy who did breakfast Sunday morning, 30/8"
