Review of sofa bed experience
The room was nice, but the second sofa bed provided to us had a thin mattress. After sleeping on it, I experienced back pain and lost sleep

Pleasantly surprised
We weren't expecting much from this hotel but were pleasantly surprised. The room was excellent value for money and was nicer than anticipated. Yes, this is an older hotel and it shows in places, but everything was clean and tidy.
We booked a twin Premium room which had nice extras such as robes & slippers provided. The twin beds were almost touching which was fine for us as we're good friends but perhaps would be a bit weird if you were sharing with a colleague, for example.
We had problems with the aircon not staying on for more than a couple of minutes. Not a big problem in December - we just opened a window - but I imagine would be very uncomfortable in the summer months.
There were a few other niggles - there was a coffee machine in the room but no coffee pods supplied and we only received one pack of complimentary biscuits (so 3 custard creams to share between the two of us).
The bathroom is quite small but fine for a single person at a time. The shower is a walk-in style enclosure with pleasant complimentary toiletries (shower gel, shampoo and conditioner). I found the shower pressure a little weak.
The pool and gym are both quite small but adequate for a short stay. The pool was clean and warm - unfortunately the hot tub was out of order.
All of the staff were very welcoming and we genuinely felt welcome here. I will look forward to staying again.

Good choice for a night’s stay.
I stayed here for one night with my husband & our young baby. The booking confirmation said we’d have a cot in the room but when we arrived the room had one double bed & the sleeper couch had been made into a bed. It wasn’t a problem as we had a travel cot with us but it was a good job we weren’t relying on there being a cot provided. The room was clean & comfortable enough, although it was way too hot when we arrived (the thermostat was set to 24C) but we turned it down & the windows opened enough that it cooled down. The windows didn’t fit brilliantly so we could hear the wind in the night but there was a huge storm so I think usually you’d probably hear some traffic noise through them but not enough to keep you awake. The shower was a let down unfortunately. It took ages to get it to the right temperature & it was variable to say the least. We didn’t have the breakfast so I can’t comment on that. The other thing to mention is the layout of the hotel is a little odd. The rooms are spread out over 2 floors but in a long thin arrangement, rather than being a tall building. There are multiple entrances once you have your key so we could get to & from the car quickly rather than going via reception but it’s worth being aware that you may have a bit of a trek from reception to your room when you arrive & we didn’t notice a lift. Overall, not bad for a night’s stay.

Uncomfortable and no sleep
The room needs a freshen up. the bed was a small double at best and so uncomfortable. Also, the radiate was making a constant tapping noise all night. We phoned the reception to try and get the radiator sorted, but nobody answered. Check out wasn't until 12 pm, but we left at 7 am as we had been up all night and couldn't stabd being in the room a moment longer

We stopped here for a weekend and were generally very pleased with it. Clean, comfortable, great staff and service and good food. Our only conolaint was that the room we stayed in was very small for a family of three and only had a shower in the bathroom so i couldn't give our little one a bath, and it was a struggle having two people in the bathroom to wash her.
