Great place to stay
Room was lovely and the bathroom was big. Food in restaurant very good as was the service. Staff behind bar very efficient and friendly a great team! Only downside would be could be a bit noisy at night with the music from the bar if you had a room at the front of the hotel but all in all we had a great stay would definitely book again

Overnight stay
Room was clean tidy, bed comfortable. Bathroom spotless. Only issue was noise outside our room with people going in and out pub. We were aware of this after reading reviews.

The issue i had when i arrived was there is no parking had to drive around to find a space luckily for us we only had hand luggage. Food was excellent and to a high standard. But once we decided to retire to our room the noise was unbelievable i thought i had arrived at ministry of sound in ibiza until 2am then it went quiet so don't expect to sleep Friday and Saturday until 3am i know it does mention this on there web page but it was that bad the lights were shaking in the room absolutely shocking

Some rooms noisy Saturday night
The check in was very friendly and efficient. The lady made me feel welcome and was very helpful. The room was clean but a little dated with a water stain on ceiling. Bed was big and comfortable. The main issue was the bar is open until 2am playing very loud music. The vibrations were felt in bathroom and even with earplugs you could hear the music very loudly in the room. Our room was right above the bar so other rooms would not experience this same issue. After 2am everyone cleared out quickly and it was quiet.

Disappointing
Blinds in the room had not be cleaned in a while. Bed felt more like a queen size bed rather than a double. The bar area floor your shoes stuck to it. Website advises free parking but hotel doesn't have a carpark. Definitely not vale for money.

Access to reception through bar - intimidating - when I came down after carrying all my bags up four flights and asked if they had bar snacks I was offered only crisps and peanuts. The bar was full of shouted loud obscenity which the staff did nothing to curb - no place for a family holiday - I made the mistake of paying over £11 in advance for breakfast and the only non meat option was egg roll or cereal. Next morning the liquid soap dispenser in the bathroom was empty and the only other dial dispenser was broken. Miserable experience
