The location provides easy access to the city center. The bed was very comfortable. The mini fridge had fresh milk.

The parking around the back was a bit of a squeeze to get into.

The room's cleanliness and decor were superb. i slept great because i didn't hear anyone else. the room included water, milk, biscuits, and white company toiletries. the staff provided a very accommodating and friendly welcome. I felt my custom was valued.

One minor issue arose. There were few car park spaces available on arrival, although there's a nearby car park costing £8 overnight.

the room was clean and nicely decorated. it met my basic expectations.

i had some problems with the bed size, it didn't seem like the king size i booked. when my husband raised this with reception, he was met with hostility and accusations. this put us on edge and spoiled the experience.

Mixed Feelings About My Stay

spacious showerextra fee

The shower was spacious and very clean.

I requested a slightly earlier check-in prior to my stay, but I was informed I would have to pay an extra fee. I have found more flexibility at less expensive hotels. This policy was disappointing.

the room was spacious and stylish. the bed was super comfy and i found the little extras wonderful. i really liked that the location was also fantastic.

the windows in my room didn't fully close, so i could hear every car passing. there were people stomping around on the floor above. i had a terrible sleep on the first night because of the windows.

I had a superb room. It had fantastic facilities including a coffee machine and fridge with fresh milk. The room also contained a DAB radio with a Bluetooth speaker. The White Company toiletries were a nice touch. The free parking was an added bonus. I appreciated the few minutes walk to nearby bars and restaurants.

I noticed no breakfast at the hotel. I had to eat elsewhere. This small inconvenience did not detract significantly from the overall experience. A simple breakfast option would have been a nice addition to the stay. Despite this, the hotel offered excellent value.

The hotel had a really good location. It was nice and quiet but close to the town. Tracey greeted me at reception and guided me to my parking space. She was very friendly. She was also helpful.

I booked the hotel to celebrate a birthday. Before arrival, I requested an earlier check-in and a later check-out. I learned it would cost an extra £10 each day. There was no flexibility.
