Won’t stay again, sorry staff you did your best

Food, staff, cleanliness were all good. The location very close to a roundabout on a major trunk road very very noisy. The whole place was tatty, stained seats in the dining room, torn carpet at the entrance, odds bits of poorly repaired items in the room, some bits not repaired. My mattress was far far far too soft and uncomfortable.
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and comfortable but basic

The rooms were clean and comfortable, but basic. The carpets in the corridors are worn and tired, which let it down as an overwll impression. Restaurant and bar was welcoming and plenty of variety to eat.
