Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We never actually stayed at this facility as we had to cancel our initial booking because of a family emergency. We understand it is a great place and maybe we can utilise it sometime in the future
Everything was great except that light and traffic noise woke us very early- double glazing is needed. And the excellent blockout blinds were installed inside the window frame rather than face-fitted, meaning that light leaked around them and woke us at 5.30am These two issues wrecked our sleep and would stop us staying again. This is a pity because the accommodation was otherwise very comfortable and the staff were great.
A very comfortable & safe complex that is very convenient to the Hospital.

The room itself was ok. However, a room with an oven, cooktop etc but did not have a dining table and chairs? Ended up eating my dinner sitting on the corner of the bed whilst my wife sat in the office style chair. I have travelled a lot and stayed in much more comfortable lodgings. I just think that for the price it was lacking basic comforts. Breakfast supplied is beyond basic. I'm not one to give negative feedback but this experience was exactly what I have given in the rating, average.
