Adi from reception was brilliant but check out was at 11am why did housekeeping knock on my door at 9.30am wake me up and try enter the room? Absolutely ruined the trip for me - I’m sure they get given a sheet showing which rooms are occupied etc - they knocked and woke me up at 9.30am!! I didn’t answer the door when they knocked and they thought they could come in? Bad service!!

Was an okay stay for our overnighter. Room was clean although the aircon unit did keep making some strange noises throughout the evening/early morning, checking in was okay. Staff were friendly and attended to our needs throughout our stay. Breakfast was alright however the scrambled eggs were a tad salty for my liking.

Mediocre.
Decent location with quiet rooms higher up. A/C a good addition as windows are sealed. Breakfast was poor quality food, restaurant too small for the size of the hotel and rude staff. If its cheap, go for it but there are better alternatives.

The room is well equipped, but the air conditioning is very noisy at night. The bed was also very hot. The breakfast is average. The rooms are soundproofed.

Double room was very spacious and bathroom very clean. Mattress was slightly uncomfortable as i could feel the springs. Price was good as includes breakfast. Lift slightly confusing. Breakfast on the day i stayed (Sunday night stay so Monday morning breakfast) was served 6.30am to 9.30am. I went down at 8.50am and it was queuing all the way back. Apparently it was extra busy that morning. They had to extend breakfast time. I waited 35 minutes. The pastries had all run out completely and some of the hot food items had run out before they were being topped up. I didnt enjoy the breakfast experience especially as the hotel is holds a large capacity of people but didnt seem to cater for that number at breakfast time.

Initially staff were pleasant but then advised that air con wasnt working in any of the 3 rooms we booked. We were offered complimentary cold drinks from the fridge in reception. We have just had the hottesr 2 days of the year and had 2 children in our party. On the second day of our stay we were told in a very rude manner in front of a large queue of people that only the water was free and we would have to pay for the soft drinks we had taken from the fridge. We refused as that was not what we were told when we arrived.Given we had driven for over 6.5 hours due to an accident on the motorway we had booked last minute after walking out of another hotel that was unfit to stay in we had felt we had no choice but to stay here even without the air con and no opening windows but the rude manageress ruined the stay for us.

Budget option but could be better
Check in was ok. Budget hotel with modern amenities as expected i.e. lift, towels, toiletries, full length mirror, aircon, kettle & hair dryer in room, chair plus small 1 seater sofa in room targeting business travellers rather than families. Free breakfast. What needs improvement is (1) there is no water dispenser in the lobby/reception, (2) not enough tea sugar milk in the room - I called reception twice but they didnt answer so I went down myself but they did not have any!? They eventually sent some to the room later, (3) small rooms with narrow aisles around the bed, the kettle area is so narrow that even 1 person struggles to make a coffee at a time (4) B4 parking is a street away but there is NCP parking next door?! the back entrance drop off was blocked so we had to walk back to the hotel with bags in the rain and cold?!

Poor information before stay
Wasn’t told at check in to validate car, room was clean but was told before booking it had air con as wife suffers with asthma and a temperature of 16 to which it only went to 19 and no air blowing out in 27 degree heat. Hotel in places needs repairing with holes in walls cracks everywhere. Breakfast was lovely and very spacious but car park is a long walk away if you struggle with walking

This is not a fair representation of the brand.
Worst trip I've had in a long time. The bed was uncomfortable, the room needed a good clean, I dropped something off the desk and when I picked it up it was covered in thick dust. The light bulb in the shower didn't work and the sink in the bathroom too 30+ minutes to drain. I've stopped in so many holiday inns and this one is definitely not a fair representation of the brand. I would not stop there again.
