The hotel had a restaurant and a bar on site. I found the car park and bar were close to each other. The location was ideal because of the motorway proximity. Check-in proved quick and simple.

Breakfast lacked lighter options, like cereal or fruit. I saw only heavy items, disappointing.

Acceptable Room, Disappointing Cleanliness

The room offered a good night's sleep thanks to a comfy bed.

The room smelled strongly of damp, immediately off-putting. Staff said they were fully booked and could only move me the next day. the hotel was worn down. It needs redecorating.

The room was of a good size and quite clean. I found it very handy to have a restaurant directly attached to the hotel. The breakfast was of good quality, and I especially enjoyed the two-course weekday deal available at the carvery.

I noticed a slight smell of sewage in the accommodation block.
