Convenient and Comfy Stay

quiet environment quality breakfast fresh fruit
I found the hotel very easy to access directly off the motorway. There were several dining options nearby including Asda, McDonalds, and Toby Carvery. I thought the breakfast offered good quality choices, including fresh fruit that is not always available at budget hotels.
I noticed a few areas in the rooms that seemed a bit worn. Some updating would enhance the guest experience.

Excellent Stay Near the Business Park

quick check-in warm welcome tasty meal bright room
My business trip went smoothly, and the check-in process was notably quick. Aaron, the barman, offered a warm welcome and suggested a great drink. My meal was hot and tasty, with a simple, budget-friendly menu (exactly what I needed). The room was also bright and clean.
The walls are not thick enough. I could hear noises from other rooms.
