Location was good for my purpose. The staff were extremely helpful, couldn’t fault them. I had hunter chicken and fat chips with salad and it was delicious. They sell mini bottles of Jack Rabbit wine at this location which is fabulous!
The pillows were extremely flat and I had two of them on my single bed and the comfort level was zero. Very flat and lifeless like they had had a hard weekend partying in Ibiza. Wish I had brought my own. Strange smell in the bathroom of room 3. Couldn’t identify it ie. not damp or leftover rubbish etc

No breakfast was included for the price , but breakfast was available much later than I required as I needed to leave between 7-730
Staff weren’t over friendly and as I was a guest I thought they would be , they were more interested in serving at the bar , yet no one was waiting at the time I arrived.
I felt that it was 2 separate businesses but wasn’t overly interested in the accommodation side.
The Wi-Fi didn’t work and because I didn’t feel welcome from the start I didn’t go and ask them for help, as I was a lone guest this made my experience very poor

Breakfast was generous.
Service was good.
A tidy set up in a housing estate - a little off the main streets.
Clean and basic. Perfectly good base for visiting family.
Coffee!
Just not a fan of the instant Nescafe in the room. Filter coffee at breakfast would be nice.

Clean, tidy and everything you need
The green fire exit light is to big and bright it lights up the room so hard to sleep. Also you can not fill the kettle in the sink as it’s to big or the sinks to small. They did however leave 2 small bottles of water.
