My room was noisy at night once the TV was off. Accept traffic noise when staying at a service station but sounded more like a generator running all night outside the window somewhere.
A decent sized room but the maintenance of the room hasn’t been maintained. The window didn’t close properly which meant the noise from the traffic was extra loud (we were expecting some noise but not that loud). The remote control for the tv didn’t work, the standnext to the bed was missing so couldn’t put anything next to me and despite it being a room for 3 people we only had 2 towels.

A very noisy and basic room. Expected some noise staying at the services but the room was next to the lorry parking area so was very uncomfortable. Window broken and didn’t close properly. Bed and pillows were poor quality. Soap dispenser had not been refilled. You pay for what you get. Wouldn’t recommend unless nothing else available in the area.
The room was basic but clean, we had everything we needed. The staff were very friendly

Clean room and amazing bed. Room needed a second chair, the TV reception wasnt perfect and 'menu/TV guide' didn't work. The door to the bathroom got stuck on the floor and there was paint on the ceiling light. But the gentleman at reception was very professional and apart from the distant motorway noise it was very quiet.
