Well placed just off the motorway Rooms well priced I don’t like having to pay an extra £13 to ensure a refundable status for the booking The lift has a strange odour as does the 3rd floor around the lift area The atmosphere of the hotel is slightly underwhelming and the staff differ in service level provision

Convenient but basic
Hotel is ok. Had room overlooking the river which was nice. However we booked a double room and the bed was uncomfortable, as dipped in the middle. Room was tired and old. Cooked breakfast was lovely and staff were all friendly and helpful.
