It's a piece of Myrtle Beach in the middle of England. If you know Myrtle Beach, this should explain it all to you.

It was very noisy for me

All I was looking for a place to sleep overnight but could not sleep due to noisy 2:00 am check-in above my room. The noise lasted till 4:00am in the morning. I did complain to the night porter who was the only person staying as a staff overnight but he didn't even contact me in return for the feedback or apology. In the morning I felt very tired because not had enough sleep, spoilt my day. Other then that it looked clean, no complaints, staff can feel a bit happier apart from the guy at the restaurant who was very welcoming when I arrived.

Location was great and it was easy to find. I booked 2 family rooms, which were perfect for us and a good price. Rooms were clean, quiet, and had everything we required for our stay. Eg enough towels, extra pillows. Staff were polite, professional and happy to help. We had an evenibg meal in the pub. service was efficient and quick, which was great as we were travelling with children. Breakfast was cooked to order and again staff and service was quick and efficient. We were impressed, heaps better than the premier inn we stayed at the last time we visited Derby. We will definitely be booking rooms at Blue Jay the next time we visit Derby. It was a good choice for us as we were travelling with children.
