8/10 Good
"Staff were friendly and informative on arrival and check in was quick and simple. Stayed in a double room which had tea and coffee available, no biscuits though. Good size desk for working on, with plenty of sockets in the room including USB points as well as more socket/USB by the bed. wifi had very good signal and easy to connect to. Iron, ironing board and hair dryer also in the room. Shower was powerful and hot with soap/shampoo available, although it was a compact area with little space. A Buffet Breakfast was offered, which had a good selection of items, but as seems to be normal these days, the temperature was warm rather than hot for the food. Parking available and free which is always a bonus, just need to make sure you enter your car reg on the iPad in reception. Overall good value for the facilities but could do with a bit of an upgrade/refurb in communal areas."
