Do not stay here

I booked this hotel as it stated it had a lift. On arrival the family room was on 1st floor on side of hotel that doesn’t have a lift. The side that does have a lift is under renovation. One of my party uses a wheelchair. The alternative room I was offered was on the ground floor, not wheelchair accessible and the door of the room opened straight out onto the car park, and I did not feel safe to stay in that room. Please do not stay here. No offer of a refund or credit note from receptionist

I would say it was average. We didn’t have enough towels so had to go to reception to get some. They gave us some straight away. We have been staying there twice a year for nearly 14 years and this was the worst room we have ever had. Water was hot in the night but couldn’t get any hot water in the morning in the sink. The shower was hot though but not much pressure. We have always had a bath and shower when we’ve stayed before but this time only had a shower. Also they don’t do evening meals anymore which they haven’t done for some years now.

Very basic room, but probably as would expect from a 3* hotel. Clean and bed was comfortable. It was also a quiet and cool room, being on the north side away from the road and the sun during a heat wave.

Filthy stained carpet in bedroom. Lighting very poor. Breakfast disappointing...no scrambled egg option as an alternative to congealed fried eggs. Very poor value for money, given the exorbitant room rates.

The building doors magnetic lock was hanging off, the window was falling off and there was hair in the bathroom. The upside was the quick check in and a comfy bed.

It’s ok for a 1 night stay.

It’s okay. Looks dated from the outside and looks more like a motel rather than a hotel. Dated inside aswell but clean and beds are fairly comfy. Due to the warm weather the rooms are very hot and no fans and windows only open 1 inch. Breakfast was fairly good if you like a full English.

The hotel from the outside is completely unloved. The shower in our room was poor, no cold water only tepid. However on the plus side it was very clean and comfortable and we slept very well.
