At 1am we were checked into a room that was already occupied. A shock for the person both in the room and the person entering to room at that time of night. We were told ‘human error can happen’ as we all know.

When checking in at 7pm on the Saturday night the man who greeted us at the desk was very polite and made us feel at ease. He explained everything in great detail and couldnt do enough to help, for example when we asked he gave us extra towels and tea ect. Would 100000% stay again

Service was great on arrival. Few items needed updating which I mentioned on leaving such as window not closing properly and a single bed mattress that was rock hard. Generally fine. Needs aircon in the future Id suggest. Still, good staff and location.

Though it was a room set for disability issues there were no support bars in the shower. The toilet was so close to the wash basin that those with mobility issues would struggle to use the toilet.

The stay was good and value for money. The only issue I had was after paying my parking to the reception for my stay. I got a parking fine sent to my house which I am now fighting to understand why.
