This property was absolutely perfect for our reqirements. Only a couple things that could have been better but werent in anyway the hotels fault - the lift was out if order and there was paint work being done, this made things slightly difficult with a toddler. Also the staff were amazing! We managed to leave behind a beloved teddy, and the staff are willing to hold onto it until we can get back there from our trip. Wonderful stay

Value for money?? I wouldn't say so. I'd say fairly expensive for a very dated room, lacking much about it. Size wise for a wheelchair user was fine, but the carpet makes it hard for the wheels, the shower was an ok size, but lacked an6 power. I had to search for the brew station which was packed away in a draw with the cheapest coffee possible. At this price range normally you'd expect a coffee pod machine as a bare minimum. The bed was comfortable, ut when having the heating systems in the room on, it had a very high pitched siren like noise from it, which i thought was a fire alarm coming from another part of the hotel. So with that, I had to switch off the heating system and hope it didn't get too cold through the night. On a plus, the breakfast was very good. Quality ingredients and good drinks selection as well. Then, onto the park8ng. Out of 4 disabled spaces which were all being used. I was the only 1 with a blue badge. These aren't meant as a luxury, it is so we can physically get in and out of our cars.
