Wonderful
The hotel is in an ideal spot, and the reduced car park fees at the car park is a great deal. Staff are always friendly and helpful.
I have stayed a few times at this hotel, and it has always been very clean. However, the bedroom was not as clean as normal this time. There were a couple of sweet wrappers under the vanity table and an empty bottle of water under the bed and hairs in the shower this time. The rest of the room and the hotel were spotless.

Nice room clean and perfect location for train station and local amenities venues
No eggs available at breakfast!! as a vegetarian that made the selection very poor! and having one of the main lifts out of order was a nightmare

Great location for what we needed. Good spacious powerful showers.
The lifts! Took forever and had trouble getting stuck on floors with door opening and closing. Had to take the stairs a few times. Carpet needs a good clean not just a hoover and our room had a Smokey smell to it

It is a lovely place, always clean. Staff friendly. Breakfast adequate. Overall love staying here!
This time the lifts were worse than normal. Made worse by one being out of order. When booked on the 8th floor means walking up and down 20 flights to the bar/breakfast area.

The staff and location is excellent.
A fire alarm in the very very early hours of the morning when we all had to go downstairs and outside in the cold was not fun when it turned out to be just drill rather than something serious.

Disappointing
Location, comfy bed
Long wait for check in then10min wait for service at the bar. Only 1 lift working which repeatedly went up and down between middle floors. After a 15min wait at the ground floor we had to walk up 17 flights of stairs with our suitcases. Had to use the stairs for the duration of the stay. Paid nearly £200 for the night to experience this....

Disappointing
The location was excellent and the staff were friendly
The elevator situation is dire, one lift was out of order and the second lift got stuck for ages and was out of action. You could be waiting 15 to 20 mins for one lift to come and when your mum has scoliosis and the room is on the 6th floor the stairs aren’t an option. This element really let the place down. The room was basic and the beds were very uncomfortable, there was no window in the room to open, two big panes of glass and no window to open ? The room was noisy and could hear every car, argument and hussle and bustle of outside so didn’t get a good sleep, I had specifically requested a quiet room and I was given a room directly beside the lifts which was far from quiet as all the guests on the floor have to stand right outside the room chattering and banging suitcases while waiting the 20 minutes for the lift to come!

Fair
The actual bed is comfortable and a couple of members of staff were great when the fire alarm went off and we had to all evacuate. One lady in particular (lots of piercings, light hair) was great even in a really stressful situation.
You cannot sell a double room with pull out bed for 4 adults....the pull out was absolutely horrendous. We are not usually fussy..ita just a bed for the night but it was Beyond uncomfortable. We are in pain this morning. The actual bed is comfortable.
