The hotel itself was good. While it is a bit dated, we got two rooms that were adjoining. The temperature was not great. The breakfast was over priced for what we got.

Unusual place, but decent for being a budget hotel. Food quality for dinner was surprisingly good, buffet breakfast food quality was low, but if you don't mind about lower quality and are more interested in a large breakfast then you will be happy. For me, the bedroom temperature was set far to high.

Felt like the setting of a budget slasher movie, well past its best indefinite need of a facelift. Had shining vibes.

Moat house
The aircon was broken and the outside area resembled a scrap yard. Not sure if the place was being referbished but did not see any skips.

Our room was musty smelling and there was a giant wooden beam next to the bed with barely any room to walk past without walking into it during the night if you needed to use the bathroom. The bed was soft and small. Not a good stay.

Large rooms with friendly staff
Lovely comfortable room although a bit dated and stained in some areas. Staff very friendly and helpful.
The bathroom was big but the water only lukewarm.
No plug points near the bed not helpful when charging a phone and you need an alarm
One issue was the noisy bar outside our window which wasn’t ideal with kids

People smoking outside windows until 1am, car park flooded to get to my vehicle on leaving. Someone took a number 2 in the hallway of hotel outside rooms and this was left there for considerable time. Guessing this hotel is being used to house immigrants/probation adults.

Attentive staff, few small improvements needed
Very helpful and accomodating reception team. Corridors and door to room looked rundown and not inkeeping with the interoior standard of the rooms and lobby area, which were modern and attractive.
Cleanliness standard good but bedding could have smelt fresher, mattress was also quite firm. AC not very effective, could only open the window slightly so room was quite warm.

Tired and a poor breakfast
The place felt very tired, and a shadow of it's former self. The breakfast was over-priced. I had to pester to receive a fork, sugar, and milk - all things you should expect to be available at breakfast.

Nice hotel with dome isdyes
A lovely, hotel with good staff, no BBC channels in the room when the England match was on, flickering lights and no hot water in the morning were not ideal.
Also limited vegetarian and vegan options for breakfast.

Disapointing
Very disappointing. Turned up about 10pm to many lights not functioning properly in the car park. Smooth check in but rooms are very tired and discoloured. Air con does not work. Breakfast very disappointing too.
