10/10 Excellent
"A very comfortable hotel just on the edge of the city a 15 minute stroll to the Forest football stadium and the Trent Bridge cricket ground.. Good size parking lot and easy to find on a main road. The room I had was spacious with a modern bathroom and walk in shower. The king size bed was firm enough and I had a good nights sleep. Breakfast buffet is good for assembling a good old fashioned English breakfast but didn’t have a lot of variety otherwise. Staff were friendly and helpful. The gym is well equipped and the swimming pool, although small is well maintained and clean. An excellent hotel for visiting the city and at a reasonable price."

8/10 Good
"Lovely safari tent in a convenient and peaceful setting. Incredibly handy for National Water sports centre. Bed was comfy, great having separate rooms too. Worth noting that although there are toilets close by, the only showers are at the far end of the campsite so a few minutes walk away. Tent had a mini fridge and an electric kettle, but no gas hob or pans / crockery / cutlery / cups etc so need to take your own if planning on any cooking / hot chocolates etc."

"Excellent size with clean and spacious rooms and bathroom. It was initially tricky to call the host on our International SIM card, but one we connected through WhatsApp he was very responsive. The yard had wonderfully scented flowers and the washer was much needed at this point in our trip. If we are back in the area, we will absolutely stay again!"
