Excellent location, parking available, (but limited), and friendly, helpful staff.

The hotel is a little tired with signs of wear and tear......but it's inexpensive.

2.0

The property looks great

It’s terribly run, one lonely guy on the counter in a grim reception. Poor carpets. Smelly route to room. No food offer. Clearly grand in its day with a ballroom and dining room. Why does the owner run a prime establishment in the town like steptoe’s yard.

"Luckily we only slept there, or tried Hot weekend very stuffy room"

5.0

We had a family room with three good beds

Third floor room no lift. A tiny window at one end we could not open. No lights above beds. small enclosed car park shared with neighbouring pub. In 3 nights we were never able to use it and had to use the multistorey half a mile away. the only entrance was in an enclosed courtyard and in the evening we had to unlock a gate before we got to the locked entrance.
