Brief stay

Check in was polite and ok but I was asked if they could take the payment off my card and I seemed to have trouble being understood that I had already paid and no, they couldn’t take another payment off my card. Resolved after a few minutes. Also disappointed that I had to pay for parking. I had not seen any mention of this on the web site

Give the bed a miss!!!!

It was one of the worst beds I’ve ever slept in that I ended up with a bad back. The pillows were so hard and huge that I wasn’t even able to use them. Perhaps holiday inn need to invest in some decent mattresses and better quality pillows

Great apart from smoking in public places

All excellent except when validating parking on arrival the machine is under cover before the hotel entrance however this area correctly is signed no smoking but people were smoking. I asked them to move which they did eventually but it is disgusting trying to input details whilst being poisoned but cigarette smoke. Shame staff cannot use CCTV to enforce this

The room was a little bit on the small side, but it was a standard double so that was expected. It was very nice and clean but the downfall was noise. it was noisy from the road outside but even worse it was noisy from inconsiderate customers woken up and down the corridor talking on mobile phones loudly after midnight. Another customer came back around half past one and starts crashing about in the room next door and talking very loudly had doors banging ended up not getting hardly any sleep. If you’re looking for somewhere to stay and you want to get some sleep go somewhere else because this place is very noisy at night but cleanliness is quite good
