Stayed here for one night whilst doing a spot of shopping. I was very surprised with how comfortable and modern the rooms where especially for such a low price the cleanliness of the rooms where fantastic also breakfast was good only complaint would be the size of the plates and glasses found myself going backwards and forwards to get refills. But all in all a brilliant hotel

The stay was very good. Comfortable and clean. Wait staff were amazing and helped every way they could. I have gluten free and lactose free milk and were very accommodating. The reception staff were good. Only issues we had was there was no body cleanser in our room so when we had shower there was so soap. Also the towels were changed but the cups and mugs were not changed.
