hard bedhotel condition
i booked a double room. the bed was very hard. i think sleeping on the floor may be better. there was noise from other rooms with doors banging at night and early morning. macdonalds is close. i could hear the traffic and wind. the hotel seems tired too, it needs some refurbishment.

Just Acceptable Stay

The car parking provision was good.
The room was not serviced even when I left the card on the door. At breakfast, I paid for the classic option, but the manager told me I was only allowed one piece of bacon. The menu said two, so it was quite unwelcome

The location proved easy to find! and parking was ample. The room was tidy. It was also quite spacious for a family.
The heating was tricky to manage and the room wouldn't get cool. The food quality was not great and I wouldn't eat there again. The beer tasted flat but otherwise, the stay was acceptable.

A Tender Stay

Check-in was effortless. Numerous car spaces exist including electric chargers. I found the family room just as expected and the shower was very effective. The choice of carvery was abundant and tasted fresh with tender meat.
We waited forty-five minutes after ordering our food although it seemed they were not that busy.

The room size proved adequate for my needs.
The heating system proved awkward to operate , as the room remained stubbornly warm. The pints I ordered tasted unpleasantly flat , and I'd advise ordering bottled drinks instead.
