Good location for Donington Park, room clean and comfortable, staff welcoming and friendly, excellent breakfast.

Couldn’t use the restaurant as it was closed for refurbishment, though the owner did inform us a few days beforehand.

"Good value for money. If only breakfast coffee wasn’t instant."

8.0

The personal contact was very genuine and good. The value for money was good. Bed was fine. Clean.

TV was stuck high away on a wall. Shower was mediocre but hot. Breakfast coffee wasn’t good: instant. A shame because breakfast itself was ok.
