Tired B&B
Basic budget hotel / B&B Slow service checking in whilst someone fixed a stapler (really?!) Room was very cold but there was an electric heater which I had to leave on all night, no heating in the bathroom. Quite tired looking - peeling vinyl on headboard, tears in curtains, mould on bath silicone etc.

I would not recommend this hotel.
Lady on reception was very welcoming. Check in was smooth. However, was called back as their system wasn’t working. My room was down graded from a queen size bed to a standard double bed. No manager on site to help. Room is so out dated, carpets are stained and dirty, mould in bathroom, bed was very uncomfortable. No fan in room. A lot of Mosquitos in the room and bathroom. Photos on website are from over 10 years ago. They do not have a gym as per their website. Definitely try to avoid staying here. The only good thing is they have a big car park.

Room in need of some tlc
I've stayed here before and don't remember having a room (217) as poor as this one. Whilst the bed and pillows and desk area was fine, the carpet was almost worn out and the water pressure in the shower was pretty much a dribble. Turn the shower head upside down and the water all but stopped. However, the barman was good, waitresses good, evening meal was very nice as was breakfast.

Stayed here before several times. The problem with booking with Hotel's.com was the inability to ask for a large double/king size bed on the booking form. So I went for the nearest option of a large single bed, which didn't really make any sense to me, and the hotel does NOT advertise beds of that nature. So we ended up with a twin bedded room.

Nice location, cheap, easy parking. Hotel is a bit of a time capsule. My room was on the bottom floor, had a strong musty smell that clung on to my clothing and baggage. Breakfast was okay, but deep fried toast???

6/10 Good

Reception staff were lovely and friendly. Room was not clean and had items left from previous guest under bed. Dust throughout. I cleaned ledges before sleepingg go. Holes in duvet cover. Sheets did not fit the beds leaving the mattress (without mattress protector) visible. Basin tap very loose. Toilet needed good clean It is tired but that would be fine if only it was properly clean. Non English/Welsh member of staff (lady) at breakfast was very grumpy. Felt like we were putting her out by asking for a knife and milk with our coffee. Such a shame. Location great and car parking easy.
