The property needs air conditioning. The room temperature was unbearable and the 1 small fan didn't do anything to help. The staff were fantastic. Hotel could do with a referb. The area outside the hotel was dirty but that's not the hotel's fault as it's a service station.

Room was basic! No air conditioning unfortunately, although a fan was provided. For any person planning a stay, try and ask for a room away from the HGV parking. Fridge trailers running all night, prevented being able to leave the window open for air.

At 1am we were checked into a room that was already occupied. A shock for the person both in the room and the person entering to room at that time of night. We were told ‘human error can happen’ as we all know.

When checking in at 7pm on the Saturday night the man who greeted us at the desk was very polite and made us feel at ease. He explained everything in great detail and couldnt do enough to help, for example when we asked he gave us extra towels and tea ect. Would 100000% stay again
