Friendly staff, easy location with parking. Room was clean.

Room extremely hot, would have been helpful to ventilate it before we arrived on such a hot day. Provide a fan.

"Very Good"

7.0

We arrived late having walked from the train station in the evening - about a 30 min walk- and were warmly welcomed. The room was well appointed and clean. The breakfast was lovely with a great selection of food. Super easy to catch a bus into the city centre. A brief but enjoyable stay and super value!

"Good value for money -- nice walk to the city"

8.0

Nice walk to the city center -- partly along the river -- or better even if you go over the hill via Old Durham Gardens.
