Housekeeping wasn't as good as it should have been. And the bathroom consisted of a pre-fabricated cubicle. OK for 1 night if on a tight budget, but don't expect much.

Ideal for the railway

I stayed here as base for going to Newmarket races, easy to get to the station as its over the square and lots of shops and cafes in the station square. I had a good pizza in the hotel bar area on Friday.

Expensive for not being able to connect.

Wifi is unacceptably bad and the TV won't even load the TV guide. The bathroom is stupid as has a step and a door which only pulls shut, so you can't close it quietly. Fine if you're on your own, not if you are sharing and its the middle of the night!! £190 for rubbish wifi and a rock solid bed just isn't ok.
