When checking in at 7pm on the Saturday night the man who greeted us at the desk was very polite and made us feel at ease. He explained everything in great detail and couldnt do enough to help, for example when we asked he gave us extra towels and tea ect. Would 100000% stay again

I should have booked direct with the hotel as when I checked in I found out the room and breakfast would have been cheaper and also parking would have been free!

Comfortable stay
Everything was ok but there was a strong smell of fags in the room and a few brown stains on the carpet. Also a bit annoying you have to pay for parking when it says free parking

The stay was good and value for money. The only issue I had was after paying my parking to the reception for my stay. I got a parking fine sent to my house which I am now fighting to understand why.
