    My booking was confirmed as executive on reservations and then changed to ordinary standard on checking in which I didn’t understand why that happened… they said it was a problem with booking. Com

    The breakfast was very good only that it took a little bit longer to be placed and to get my egg and mushrooms. But it provide the best breakfast. It is one of the strengths for this hotel

    We got a room just in front of the lift which can be a bit noisy and the restaurant food doesn't worth the price

    Cleanliness and location were great

    Car parking is expensive (but I spose it is close to the front) Car Charging is very expensive for the charge rate.

    I stay here often so know what to expect. Nice rooms , helpful staff and a decent breakfast.

    Where the trays were situated, as it seems like it has been designed so that you enter the buffet area from the outside rather than the reception area. But not too sure how the layout can be changed due to the limited space.

    The breakfast was ok, I did find the omelette a bit watery, but that is my opinion. It had a self serving pancake machine which, although it wasn’t that straightforward as the instructions wasn’t immediately noticeable, was good.

    No staff on reception when we arrived at 15.00 hrs waited 15 minutes to be seen... Not keen to take cash? Paid in full in cash but wanted extra as a guarantee !? One lift not working Beds were uncomforable raised in the middle felt like you were going to fall out. Shower screen/door needs to be larger feel like you have to squeeze into corner of the shower so that the rest of bathroom area doesnt get wet If mobility not good area is a bit hilly so would need a cab.. Lobby area/seating area could be bigger

    Breakfast was nice plenty of choice Restaurant area was clean , modern and spacious Rooms were a good size modern and clean Staff were pleasant Location was good if you dont have mobility issues, but cabs readily available.. Button on desk to call a cab

    There was no warning in the hotel information about having to pay an additional £15 per night for the parking at the hotel. Whilst we appreciated this was a near town centre location, we were surprised to be asked for this when we checked in. The man on the desk was kind enough to book us in for parking and not charge us any money. As we are in our 60's and visiting for a short break (and not for work purposes), we felt this was fair.

    Room was clean and had everything we needed. The location and interior of the hotel was quiet. Very good breakfast was provided. Location was easy to find when travelling by car.
