Comfortable and friendly
Staying for a few nights whilst my bathroom is being renovated. Excellent facilities and friendly, helpful staff. Only issue was the shower, not particularly powerful and the temperature control was temperamental. But overall very satisfied and going to stay again for a few nights. Very convenient for work and home.

Comfortable stay
All in all a comfortable stay. Not much space in the room but perhaps if I had paid for a superior room space would have been greater. My wife had an evening meal which she said the Moules frites were nice but that the sticky toffee pudding was a bit of a disaster. Good price for what was on offer.

Hotel had good facilities and was perfectly adequate for what we needed. Nothing special but that was to be expected. A bit disappointed that we couldn't check in at 3pm as we were in a bit of a rush but I guess it wasn't the end of the world. Staff were nice enough.

The location and the transport into town was great. The breakfast area and the breakfast itself was really good. Our room though was really tired, especially the bathroom. It had mould around the bathtub and the extractor fun wasn't working. Our rubbish wasn't emptied every day although the bin was full. The most important thing was that we booked a double room with a sofa bed for a family of 4 with the children being 16 and 12. The sofa bed wasn't made when we arrived at night and we had to wait for about an hour for someone to come. Also, it was really small and the duvet provided for that was for a single bed which meant that 2 teenage, adult size boys could not fit on this bed. The hotel's system should allow you to book these kind of rooms if you have toddlers and not teenagers. Unfortunately, the clients are not aware of the size of the sofa bed before booking the room.

We had booked for 3 (had to pay extra for the third person) room wasn’t set up for three and they kept taking our 3rd towel away. Of our whole month long trip this was our most expensive accommodation and it didn’t quite live up to the price. Not fully in city centre but the bus system near by was easy to figure out

Stay was good, service in the bar was ok, food was not nice. I had the mussels which was in a nice sauce but the mussels themselves were dry and tough, the ham and cheese toastie was dripping in grease and the pizza had far too much cheese on it so was greasy and soggy
