Poor service, wouldn't recommend
Very tired room in need or refurbishment. No services to speak of in hotel, you have to go to the spa for food and drink which we weren't informed of and if yhave an earstarton a weekend the spa isnopen so you can't get anything. We also weren't informed that we had to put a sign on the door for the room to be serviced. Rooms are exceptionally warm and there is no air-conditioning.

Looking at the property it looks great but it's not !. If they put you in a back room you won't sleep simply because it backs onto the A1 M. If your not on the top floor and facing the car park then good luck with sleeping . If your on the two lower floors people are walking about all the time the walls are thin and I was told by a local the hotel is used as a knocking shop for men seeking extras. Be careful. I went to have something to eat at the spar and I was creating by a very ignorant woman with a real attitude problem it was like she really didn't want to be there . To be honest I was glad I was setting off early the next morning with the noise of the A1M keeping me awake. Good luck with this hotel. And with this one it's a wolf in sheep's clothing .

No frills but clean and comfortable.
Comfortable, clean, all in good repair. A no frills sort of hotel with more facilities in the spa opposite the hotel. Didn't use the spa facilities so can't comment on those, but did get food there. All I'm going to say on the food is that it was cheap and the quality reflected the price. The staff were uniformly polite, helpful and friendly, definitely the high point of experience. Overall it was pretty good.

Room 20
Stayed here for 1 night. ROOM 20 Shower room door didn't open so you just mannaged to get through. Extractor fan in the shower room made a loud buzzing noise when automatically activated, which disrupted our sleep. Reported these faults to reception desk. Room was very tired, carpets very flat and stained. For the price we paid i expected alot better.
