Room was ok. Bed was two beds together so you kept falling down the gap in the middle. Needed a thick mattress topper that covers both beds so you couldn’t go down the gap. The hotel was a little tired inside with doors needing painting as it made the experience feel cheap. Staff were polite and helpful. Room was big but tv only had shopping channels so couldn’t watch anything. The room was also on the high street so all night we heard shouting and commotion so didn’t get much sleep. Some better glazing would help

Twin room needs a makeover. One small bedroom window very high up so you couldn’t see out and not much light getting through. Gave the sense of a prison. Very tired decor and furniture. The cheapest toilet paper on the market. One small residents bar which was under stocked. Didn’t try breakfast so can’t comment on the food. Won’t be staying again. Not worth the money.

Room was lovely and clean and very spacious! Good facilities and very good location for our dinner reservations. Polite staff on reception and lovely reception area. Only giving 4 stars because of the noise as we were on the Main Street, lots of noise throughout the night, but I know that’s beyond the hotels problem.

The Room was spotless and the staff were all absolutely wonderful to deal with. My main issue was that outside my window had pigeons cooing all night and I unfortunately am a very light sleeper. Other wise great stay and I am happy to stay again but in a different part of the hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel location was fabulous however we faced disappointment with certain aspects of the stay: - the hotel bed had two hairs in the sheets / pillows on arrival which is quite disgusting - there were no towels in the room so we had to get some from the maid before showering causing an inconvenience - the room was incredibly hot and when we tried to use the air conditioning unit there was no remote in the room to actually turn it on so we had restless sleep every night I’d expect these issues not to arise considering the price paid for the 2 night stay. What can hotels.com do to compensate this?

Staff courteous and very friendly. Location excellent. Hotel needs refurbishing, toilet difficult to flush properly, stains on seat upholstery, stained paintwork on wood doors and skirting boards. Did not meet my expectations so it is unlikely that I would stay there again.

We have been staying at this hotel on and off for over 10 years .we can see a massive deterioration. For example. No dressing gown.no slippers ..we always had them ...bathrooms : probably need upgrade. Due to windows age ..i can see reason for the windows being bolted shut but there isnt any air in the room . Staff are very friendly. Breakfast...all fried ... variety not as it was .very poor We will probably book another hotel next year.
