    Breakfast was a bit ropey, my poached egg was well done and the yoghurt on the continental buffet table was not right in terms of consistency. And the compote was unbelievably sour. I couldn't select breakfast as part of my booking package and be aware that you pay for every individual item on the buffet.

    Have stayed here before and was happy to come back. Great vibe, location and a very comfortable night's sleep. Although the room we were in could do with a little TLC in certain corners, we loved the decor and how comfy everything was. There was even a supplementary heater for us to use which came in quite handy and worked really well.

    Price of breakfast! Of course I understand why - Booking.com great price, no breakfast - you have to make it somewhere!. I guess that next time I will call you and ask for your best price - inc breakfast We had Room no 1. V comfortable, but perhaps we should have been asked if we were OK with the disability room. The shower - not ideal!

    Being able to open a window to get some fresh air would have been good. And I wondered why it was necessary to have two TVs in the room. I have never seen that before! But these are minor quibbles...

    The room was spacious and well appointed. Bath and shower were great. A (very late) Sunday lunch was most excellent.

    I think the bedrooms , although very clean and I would say fairly newly decorated is not to my taste. However the new extension which is basically the bar and restaurant is very appealing. It seems it is a hotel of two halves and they don’t marry up as well as they could.

    The location was excellent. The staff were very good, helpful and friendly. The first bedroom that we were sent to was unsatisfactory but we were immediately ( upgraded) to another which was far superior. The food is good - we had an evening meal which was delicious.

    Room great, food not.
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Double or Twin Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Food in the restaurant in the evening wasn't great for the price. They seemed unable to cater for us as well as the wedding that was going on. Staff seemed keen to finish their kitchen shift and sit in the bar watching football and I think this was reflected in the quality of our food. I had asked for a quiet room and we were placed in a room that looked onto the outdoor entertainment area whilst a wedding party was going on. In the end this was ok as it finished before we slept. Breakfast buffet was not replenished so no croissants at all or fruit salad when we came down for breakfast despite there being 30 mins of breakfast service left. Pretty poor considering we were paying £15 a head for breakfast and that was what I wanted to eat.

    The room was very clean and well equipped. Staff were friendly but missed key things.

    As a cashless site we opted not to spend at the hotel as our preferred method of payment is always cash. The mini bar pricing wasn't too offensive and was just about right but because we couldn't pay cash we opted for alternate means and did not spend as we normally would at the hotel.

    Great location, excellent friendly staff and possibly the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in. There was a good range of amenities in the room such as a kettle, coffee machine and even a radio. Decor was unique and very nice and all within the room from a furniture perspective looked thoughtfully done and that it belonged..

    Breakfast items were individually priced when we were billed but this was not advertised or itemised on the menu. The dinner was tasty though as someone who eats little meat the main courses were limited for me. Portions were generous. The strange wardrobe arrangement half worked for hanging clothes but as a hot drinks station was dark and rather high up so we didn’t think it worked very well. I did find the choice of paint colours used on the walls and ceiling rather gloomy I’m afraid.

    The location was excellent for a number of activities we had planned and was chosen by me with that in mind. The bus stop across the road is a real bonus. Good parking available. The receptionist Charlotte was very helpful and assisted us to move to a downstairs room as to get upstairs was hard for me. The quality of the breakfast products was excellent and service good. Evening menu starters were good, in choice and quality. We were pleased to have two armchairs when we moved and the fridge in the room was handy.

    Room described the bed as a "large double" but it seemed to be just a standard double. Would have preferred a larger bed because my husband is very tall and his feet stick off the end of a regular double.

    Room was attractive and retro themed, even down to the rotary dial telephone. There was a fridge, coffee and tea, including a mini bottle of real milk. Excellent location close to the centre of town. We appreciated the free parking outside. Room was very quiet, despite being above a pub.
