Great choice for an overnight stay. Easy check in and out. Comfortable bed in a clean well equipped room, which was in a good state of repair. Everything you need. Breakfast was self service with a good choice of hot and cold quality produce which was regularly topped up. Tables were cleared and cleaned efficiently and unobtrusively. Very good experience.

Unfortunately we do didn't enjoy the stay, neither did the kids, the kids bed with really uncomfortable, we had to share the bed with the kids, which wasn't ideal. The hotel had no mini fridge which wasn't idea for kids.

I booked my stay after an unexpected stop over in Leeds. The online booking process was straightforward and the location to me of the hotel was very easy to access. The booking in was swift and the evening meal was good and great value. Breakfast included was a real bonus. Friendly staff and extremely clean and comfortable room.

Booked a double room with sofa bed for me and my husband. We are a male couple and booked the sofa bed room as thought it would be a more spacious room but stated only two adults in the room. When we checked in the receptionist seemed confused and said I assume you want the sofa bed made up in the room. We replied no double is fine. Again to be asked so just a double bed. We replied yes. Now I get the possible confusion but she should have asked this in a different way and not assumed. It’s a shame in this day and age and we are not massively offended but some people way be so it’s something for them to think about in future. Everything else was brill and it’s a lovely hotel to stay in a shame this happened.
