Had a very pleasant young lady welcome us. Room had everything we needed. Trying to sleep all I could hear was woman shouting "Get off me, get off me. I was concerned until I heard children running around. This went on for quite a while. Bed was comfortable, not so the pillows. Breakfast was tasty, but could have been hotter. Didn't appreciate people coming coming to breakfast in their nightwear, they are NOT at home.

It took me 30 minutes to park due to roadworks which I won't blame the hotel for. The hotel was clean but every time I flushed the toilet it would make VERY audible noise for 10/15 minutes. Bed was comphy and the whole experience was expected except the clearly drugged up woman soliciting herself.

Parking

Parking outside hotel is currently suspended so I had to use the multi storey car park next door and pay for parking. Not easy when you are disabled.I would not have booked this hotel if this had been flagged up straight away

Disliked: Cleanliness

The reception area was nicely decorated for Christmas, the room was big, and the bathroom seemed newly renovated. However, the loo seat and the inside of the lid had splash marks that had not been wiped, the shower gel container was empty (so we had to wash with shampoo), the couch in the room had many dodgy looking stains, and the cleaning staff knocked at our door bright and early on New Year’s Day(!), despite still having over an hour before checkout. And the breakfast times were set for midweek times, despite being a bank holiday.
