It’s ok at best. My shower was terrible. Eventually managed to get into another room. Rooms are serviced only every 6 days! Although recently refurbished, still needs more work done not in great condition. No restaurant no breakfast either. Staff were ok they tried their best….but wouldn’t stay here again.

Hotel was ok. Decent enough for the price. Staff were also ok. Check out day, we still had the ‘Do not Disturb’ sign on the door when the Housekeeper knocked. We were maximizing our time until checkout. Didn’t they see the sign by the door? Annoying. Not enough choices for dining in surrounding areas.

Don’t know area just stayed overnight as long drive, hotel spacious and clean, big hotel clearly half empty (from availability) so why do they put you next to another occupied room - so you can hear laughter/talking loudly until after 01:00!

Not quite what we were expecting. If it wasn’t for Hickory’s Smokehouse restaurant I’d be more scathing. Probably one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed in. I would not care to repeat this experience.

Great 2 night stay Location, ice and overall visit

I was very pleased with every aspect of the hotel except one thing which was our specific room was far too warm. The hotel staff were extremely helpful with this and gave us a solution as soon as we let them know the issue with the room.

The staff are absolutely lovely but the first room was dirty and blood stains on the sheet the receptionist was very apologetic and moved us to a nicer and clean room When I checked the bed the sheet had been tucked in so much at the bottom that the mattress was showing about a foot away, so I literally had to make the bed again When I told the girl she was so mortified and said that she would explain everything to her manager I said for all the inconvenience that we should be compensated with a free breakfast and that is exactly what they did I cannot fault the staff they were lovely and we had a lovely fresh made breakfast Don't know if I would stop again but all inall not too bad a hotel there are places to eat nearby but you need a car as the bus service is not brilliant

Great Hotel and lovely room as all very clean. Only problem for me was the bed was very firm and I didn’t sleep very well at all. Other than that an excellent experience

The hotel was good enough for a 2 night stay with my son for the Liverpool parade, It’s cheap and cheerful. Perfect for groups of lads that just want a room to put their heads down after a night out. Luckily my wife wasn’t with us because she would never have stayed in our room. It seriously needs an overhaul, so many jobs look like they’d been started but not finished.
