Love staying here as its super clean, showers always work, bed sheets and towels are fantastic and the food is excellent. The bar also has a good selection of drinks.
Rooms were clean and comfy, the staff friendly and helpful, went and stayed there on a biking trip the bikes were safe outside the hotel in view of the reception
Room was clean. Shower was amazing. Staff very helpful. No air-con in rooms so had to have window open. Could hear people coming and going from car park outside and during the night the lorry’s using the main road outside.
There was also a bright light outside our window which lit the room up. The room would be better with a fitted roller blind to act as a black out blind.
Nice hotel. My friends and I stayed for one day/night. We had lunch and some drinks. Stayed the night snd enjoyed the breakfast.
Only negative was at 5am, some guests arrived back from somewhere and were shouting and laughing like it was 2pm!
Hotel was reasonably priced and would stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness
We were able to check in a little early which was nice, room was fine - nothing to write home about. Walls must have been thin though as you could hear everything happening outside the room.
So disappointed pool not in operation no where on sites we were on did it say anything about pool being unusable. We booked the hotel specifically because it had a pool. The price was expensive for there being no pool facilities available.
Dommage que nous puissions pas ouvrir les fenêtres en grand. Il faisait très chaud.
Probablement par souci de sécurité?nous étions au rdc
Les chambres sont confortables et la salle de bain spacieuse
We had a 3 night stay in a twin room (215). The room was quiet as requested, but was very small. On three occasions had to return to reception to reactivate room keys. Breakfast was adequate. we had bar food on each night. Menu was the same each evening and was not extensive. Food was OK.
It was a very hot temperature room, I stayed two days and it was hot with not radiator on. The windows are not widely able to open and it was very noisy with morning peak hours.
I couldn't close the curtains for fresh air and outside led light pollution.
Clean room and friendly staff. Overall good
Hotel was good. Great choice for breakfast and room was spacious for a family of 3. Room carpet was looking a bit grubby. Pool and outdoor play area was good for our 4 year old. Restaurant menu was quite limited and over priced. Good enough hotel for an overnight rest stop.
