The location was convenient and close to work-related venues. The staff were friendly and helpful and the cleanliness of the hotel was generally good, which I appreciated.
I found the room to be fairly basic, the furnishings seemed a bit dated. Despite this, the room served its purpose, and I was able to complete my work without any issues, as everything was functional.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to keep us comfortable. They did much more than expected and we appreciate them for that.
The room is a little bit small to what we are use to, otherwise everything was perfect.

The staff was okay and so welcoming. It was clean 👌. The bed was on a good standard❤️
The food was not good at all. It was like overcooked, the pork was not juice as supposed. The bathroom was to small at room 5.

The food was good value for money, and to have an eating facility on site is very useful with a reasonable menu for late arrivals. The room was nice and clean, with everything needed for a short stay. A decent TV and viewing selection.
There are no hooks to hang wet towels on. The king size bed is too big for the room, I suggest a queen size would allow access around it to the windows. The wiring arrangement for the TV and decoder was untidy and inconvenient, and the fan blocked access to the charging points. There is no power outlet near the table for anyone wishing to use the table to work at, and to charge their computer.

Location, looked as in pictures
The yellow plastic cup to rinse at mouth wash. Wished it could have been glass. There were no teabags, only coffee sachets - that were not refilled next day. Breakfast was nice.....wish they would have included salt & pepper sachets
