Fantastic Stay, Clean Rooms and Helpful Staff!

clean roomcomfortable bedfriendly staffconvenient location
The room was very clean! The bed was comfortable and ensured a good night's sleep. I found the staff quite friendly. I was able to conveniently grab a meal next door, because there is a McDonald's right by the premises.
The hotel shows some signs of age.

The location offered convenient access to the motorway! This made travel easy. I found a Toby Carvery about a ten-minute drive away. This provided a good alternative to the on-site McDonald's, so I enjoyed a lovely dinner.
