The hotel was in a convenient place as close to everything we required during the weekend. We didn't use its facilities as ate and drank out in Derby. However the bed in the hotel was awful. It sank in the middle giving us the most uncomfortable sleep in a hotel ever. Ive never felt so unrested and tired.
