I have stayed twice with no problems at all - clean rooms and comfy bed, free wifi. Lots of door to navigate and I usually have lots of luggage so would recommend ground floor to people. Staff are generally pleasant and there is a nearby Tesco - 5 mins away highly recommended Indian restaurant, India Lounge

The rooms were of a good standard and very clean. The breakfast was a buffet and, although quality of food was good, they were slow to refill the food dishes and the only eggs put out were scambled and we could not understand why they only cooked fried eggs to order. Overall I felt that the morning staff lacked drive.... More

Thank you for your constructive comments regarding Breakfast - we do find that fried eggs dry up rather quickly under the hot lamps and therefore they are more enjoyable for our guests if cooked to order.

This hotel is cheap, but you get what you pay for! I reserved a room via Hotels.com and got the room only at a rate of £45. On check in the reception staff tried to upsell me a breakfast which was £13.95!!!! (You could get it for the bonus price of £8 if you paid there and then). Considering the... More

Unfortunately, I have to dispute the main criticisms in your review, which I’d like to address: Firstly, the breakfast charge is a fair reflection on what our guests receive. I cannot agree with your negative comments if you did not actually try the food and to assume that the service and food are not a high standard based purely on... More
