    Occasionally felt that clearing up after meals could have been better - eg table fine, floor not so good

    All staff were excellent

    Bath had black goo on the top of it and bits missing out of the bath that had been patched up, mouldy nets at the window and coffee at breakfast wasn't great.

    Good breakfast

    Found the restaurant expensive. The hotel card reader didn't work at checkout. Not good.

    Room was noisy, though this was as a result of a row between the occupants which began at 9.00pm and was still raging at 2.45am!!! Not a good experience!

    It was a convenient stay, within easy reach of our onward destination.

    Better decor in the bathroom and light and fan that work. No information in the room as to hours for Breakfast or Dinner. No info on accessing wi-fi. No info on how to contact reception. Hotel phone didn't work. Needed to speak to reception so resorted to using my own mobile! One final piece of info that may influence your booking. The hotel operates regular 'live music' nights. The day that I departed it was holding a 'Tom Jones Tribute' event. I would therefore imagine it would have been a LOUD night with guests milling around until the small hours. So, if you want a peaceful location, may I suggest that you check before booking.

    When you book a 'budget' hotel, you are always expecting to compromise. For this hotel, it delivered more than I expected. The check-in staff were attentive and located by booking within seconds. The bedroom was spotlessly clean and enormous in size with a large window for good ventilation. The bathroom looked somewhat 'aged' but it was clean and with plenty of fresh towels. I didn't use the restaurant but the printed menu looked good. The morning breakfast was basic. A small selection of cereals. 1 bowl of mixed fruit with a couple of yoghurts. The cooked section was small and with just one comment to the kitchen... "please do not put scrambled eggs over a lit heat to keep warm. You end up with a rubbery texture and water floating in the bottom of the tray. Stick to either poached or fried". Finally PLEASE get better toast machines! A wait of 11 (yes eleven) minutes for your bread to toast is FAR too long.

    We arrived very late after an evening with friends , we basically were locked out of the hotel at 2.30am and it took a long time for the night staff to unlock the door and let us in. We were told the reception is manned 24 hrs and our late arrival would not be a problem yet we stood in the rain , banging the door , ringing the doorbell and phoning the number given on the door sign , getting slightly concerned we would not get in . We did see the funny side of it and it did not cause any issues with the rest of our stay.

    What a great hotel ! , We just needed a one night cheap stop over and was pleasantly surprised at Blancos. Rooms were clean and huge . Bathroom was also huge . Breakfast was included in the price and although was a little poor with selection ie no pastries just English fry up and a bowl of fruit salad with yoghurt , it was delicious . We ate at the restaurant on the evening and the food was lovely and well priced. The hotel was very busy with many guests , so obviously well known in the area and used a lot. Its in a great location .

    I ordered filter coffee without milk, but it was then served with a thick layer of cold cream on top.

    Breakfast was very good and the room was good. Dinner was good although the service was slow. The people were very friendly and we enjoyed our stay.

    We had dinner in the restaurant in the evening, partner was very happy with his. However, I had the beer battered cod and boiled potatoes. The fish was 1st class, unfortunately the potatoes tasted more like the tinned variety. The texture was just so wrong. It was a pity because the fish was so good.

    The entrance can be a little confusing. However, there's tons of parking spaces! A clean and modern hotel that we would be happy to stay in again. Breakfast was lovely and service was good too.

    From room 47-50 corridor someone was smoking and it was awful smelling, the price was a lot more than affordable, our room door 54, did not shut tight twice so anyone could have come in and we slammed it to make sure. Also door rattled all night

    How modern the rooms were, and bible in the rooms
