Great full English breakfast

The quality of the complimentary full English breakfast was commended by many former guests that stayed at the hotel. Moreover, it was praised that the breakfast was apparently served in a buffet style, ensuring visitors could pick and choose items as they wished.


Negative Reviews

negative:

On-site parking not available

As the accommodation does not provide any on-site parking, this has previously caused problems at times for those travelling in their own vehicle. However, it has been said that there are plenty of public parking lots in close proximity to the hotel, helping to negate this disadvantage to an extent.

negative:

Unappealing external appearance

The external appearance of the hotel has received criticism, with it claimed to look uninviting and tired. In addition, public areas of the accommodation were also described as being in need of refreshing.

negative:

No-thrills with a lack of recreational spaces

With no recreational spaces such as a bar or games room, it is understandable that the general consensus is that the accommodation is bare bones in terms of public facilities offered. Furthermore, it was noted that the property does not contain a lift, which has caused issues in the past.
