Receptionist was welcoming and helpful(half price parking so don’t pay before you check in) Room was ok - old premier inn? - for a budget hotel it’s ok, creaky floorboards and whoever was upstairs seemed to be practising their Cossack dancing but not the fault of the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was good and the staff helpful and friendly. It is sited on a retail park away from the centre, with adjacent retail stores. The adjacent building is boarded up and in decay which gives a poor impression. The hotel is clean internally. Outside parking area and the path to retail units is strewn with rubbish, which needs attention by whoever is responsible

Nobody at check in when we arrived so waited for 20 minutes outside. The receptionist later explained that she was also doing the rooms and there was no longer a device to let her know we were waiting, hotel needs to employ more cleaners! Very professional receptionists both morning and evening!
