Bedding and bathroom very clean; tea/coffee/biscuits and toiletries provided, but carpet in room was obviously old and dirty. Parking was good and well lit, hotel was quiet, except that I was wakened by someone knocking on my door at 1.30am. I did not answer but after a few minutes I heard knocking further away and voices so I assume that someone mistook the room. However, as a lone woman I was not happy to be disturbed in the night.

I stay at the Columbia as it’s convenient for our Wellingborough office and close to two supermarkets. It’s good value for money, has (limited) on site parking and a decent standard internet.

A warm welcome and clear communication. Very helpful friendly family run hotel. The hotel looks like it is slowly beind developed, so a bit dated in areas but clean, comfortable with easy parking. I had their chicken curry for dinner, really tasty. A great stay, I will definitely use again and llok forward to watch the transformation.

Good cheap hotel

Good cheap hotel. A bit tired looking in places but clean and comfortable. Plenty of parking, good WiFi, usual tea/coffee/ biscuits which were topped up every day, friendly and helpful staff. Bathroom with a walk in shower which I much prefer to a bath. The only issue for me was there was no desk/table to work at but laptops are called laptops for a reason! Room was cleaned and bed made up for me every day which a lot of hotels don’t do these days.

This proprty does feel a bit tired and dated. We stayed whilst visiting santa pod raceway. 15 minuets from the track. The hosts were so friendly and accomodating. We had a family room which was perfect. Spotlessly clean including the bathroom and beds comfy. Tea coffee and toiletries in the room. Breakfast was extra but wow! What a great breakfast and im picky for quality 10/10. Overall good value and just what we needed. Should we ever use a hotel again whilst visiting santa pod we would definitely stay again.

Great value for money - and very quiet!

This large hotel was SO friendly and accommodating. Superb freshly cooked breakfasts and extremely comfortable and quiet room. Had the feel of a very personal B&B rather than a large hotel. Great value for money - definitely would stay again if we're in the area. Thank you for your welcome and your hospitality.
