Attitude of the staff when booking, let us book the room then said they couldn’t guarantee a double bed? The room are small, with the most uncomfortable bed we have ever stayed in. Double glazing doesn’t work, very noisy That disgusted we left a day early, staff on site must be used to people leaving early as they were not interest as to why we were leaving early

First room on 3rd floor was under public rooms airconditoning outside units and very noisy. Hard to sleep on first night but luckily we were able to move rooms. Staff very helpful in that respect and housekeeping team moved our bags etc to new room whilst we were out.

Not all staff were helpful, only one chair at desk for a double room. Not much storage space I.e. drawers. Racecource was noisy at night time. Apple juice wasn’t working both days. Not many staff available at breakfast time. The Lift made me feel uncomfortable, no announcements when arriving at certain floor, made me think it was going to break down!
I liked how friendly some of the staff were, going out of his way to find out when our taxi arrived. Beds were comfy.. breakfast was good with a lot of variety.

There was a good selection of breakfast items, but the cooked items, i.e bacon, sausage, etc were over cooked making them dry & hard.
Friendly staff, good location. Handy having the bar available during the evening so that you could have a drink in room whilst watching tv. Also handy having the open top bus stopping outside the hotel. Short walk to city centre.
