Liked: Cleanliness
Room was clean, and staff good from checkin and check out. Breakfast wasn't brilliant. The worst thing was the bed. The bed was so uncomfortable everytime me or the wife would turn you would end up rolling into each other. The decorated rooms were dated and our floor just felt like something out of the rough place in back streeets of Vegas! Wouldn’t rate this as IHG Standard more like a 2 to 3 star hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were great, hotel was clean and tidy, nice room. Late checkout is stupidly priced and only two hours extra for £20… Not so useful when working nights and need to check out at your 0600 which is 1800 in real time. Breakfast was ok, bacon was great, eggs were a little “ropey” Get in early for the best ones. Gate lock access also a bit “naff” but maybe in the process of repair.

I have been here twice, when calling to ask instructions to open the gate the lady who answered the phone was rude on both occasions. On one occasion she came out to open the gate seemingly annoyed that she had to let us out. The second time she spoke on the phone as in the same manner rudely and as if we had asked something out of sorts. The young man on the desk however was friendly and kind.
