Staff are always lovely and food is amazing! I stay here for work as often as possible. Rooms are basic but very clean and pleasant and reasonably priced. Only negative is that the bar closes at 9pm and there are no shops locally that ive found in walking distance which is not the fault of the hotel but a little inconvenient if you forget something or want a cold drink before bed
Really good value for money food outstanding please try the steak & kidney pudding massive best iv ever had staff very friendly and nothing was a bother no waiting around xx
Amazing and quick service even when we had an issue with the heating it was sorted really quickly. Lovely and friendly staff thank you for a raally good stay
