The staff were friendly and helpful. My room was clean and pleasant. Check-in and check-out were quick, taking only a few minutes. I was happy that someone was there to open the door when I returned late to the hotel, everything was okay. The restaurant food was good, and the amenities met my needs. It was good value for the money. Breakfast was a busy event, and on the first morning, seating was limited, though the staff quickly arranged a table.
The lift was not working, unsuitable for disabled guests.

my room was of a high standard it was newly furnished and decorated. The mattress was firm and comfortable plus there was a spotlessly clean en suite. Staff are friendly. The hotel is just a few minutes walk from the centre.
The lift wasn't working. This was unsuitable for disabled guests. the signposting was also poor, i got lost a couple of times. the locking out door system was quite poor as well.
