This is an excellent hotel with friendly, helpful staff; excellent, clean, good-size room with a fantastic shower room and toilet with a Jack and Jill door. All spotlessly clean. Breakfast was included and delicious. The buffet was replenished regularly.
The plus for me was the included breakfast in what's an already reasonable price per night. Went for the Bedford River Festival weekend so this was out of town but about 10 mins into town by taxi at about £10 taxi fare
Very friendly, efficient check in despite arriving after midnight. Large comfortable room but starting to show signs of wear and tear. Annoyingly, the usb sockets didn’t work and the nearest mains socket to charge my phone was the other side of the room, more than 3m away.
The carpet could do with a clean.
Breakfast was just ok.
The food area was a tad messy with spilt food.
Tables were not cleared. There was only 1 very large table that was clear but as there was only 2 of us it was far too big. The man on reception cleared the tables in the end and ask was OK.
Room was clean and comfortable but bathroom light flashed on and off from the time we got there to time we left.
Would still recommended this hotel.
