“This hotel presents a practical choice for exploring the Durham and Newcastle areas, with its easy access to surrounding cities. The continental breakfast is expansive, while the daily menu should suit various palates. I found the hotel strikes a balance between budget and essential comforts, though some aspects could use updating.”

the breakfast was fab! it included a nice full English. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I ALSO appreciated the spacious and clean room.

the showers WERE difficult to use because of a very small footage area. There was a step in the bath, it took away a huge amount of standing space. None of the accessible rooms had a walk in shower.
