Room was warm but not excessively so - sleeping with window open means a lot of traffic noise, but that is to be expected given it is so close to the M6. Absolutely silent when the window is closed! Room was spotless, public areas were all clean, staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great!!

This is a very nice hotel. Staff at check in were excellent. Room was clean and tidy sand the ensuite was cleverly set out and everything was easy to use. Room was quite hot so we needed to keep the window open, being close to the motorway it was a bit nois. All in all I would recommend this hotel, pricing was excellent and included breakfast.
