The staff were OK The hotel was apparently going through a refurbishment although we saw no evidence of this. The double bed was pushed against a wall so very uncomfortable for the inside person. The hotel had the wrong name outside so it was difficult to find. The food was very basic and cooked in a microwave. The whole place was very tired and we couldn't wait to leave

It was a comfortable room, easy to find on the outskirts of Colchester but near to the main roads The washing sink and bath were old and a bit broken down. It was just an old room in need of a revision.

A decent hotel at a reasonable price in the north of Colchester. Clean and comfortable, no complaints. The hotel has recently undergone a change in ownership, so a bit of refurbishment was going on, but nothing that detracted from the comfort of my stay.

Staff were very friendly & helpful apart from one when I had to ring to say I had been overcharged. She tried to defend their/her error rather than just say sorry & refund the £10.00 for a breakfast we did not order or take!! The hotel overall is looking very tired and worn out decor wise. For example- the wallpaper in our room was peeling everywhere and the tables at breakfast looked dreadful. Cover them with tablecloths and no one can see their poor state. However the hotel was very cheap cos it was an offer. If I had paid normal price I would have been very disappointed.

Raw breakfast - neither the sausages or eggs were cooked (raw in the middle) which was not a good experince for someone who is 34 weeks pregnant. Smell - ground floor corridor had an awful smell of stale cigarettes. Lack of well appointed plugs in room.

The hotel breakfast was excellent and the staff very helpful and friendly. Very good value for money, we have stayed there before that is why we went back. The hotel is looking a bit tired and there was a crack in the toilet, also my husband is very tall and hit his head in the entrance of the room on the lightshade.
