Great service, but the hotel is a bit worn.
Brilliant welcome from the reception team and the beds are comfortable but the carpets are really grubby and the walls are very thin so you can hear the next room almost word perfect. The hotel is located in a brilliant area with loads of restaurants nearby.

Lovely location
I didn’t realise the tea and coffee and kettle were available until the next morning as it was hidden away in a drawer, it would have been nice to have a cuppa with the lovely cookies on arrival, perhaps a note saying kettle in drawer would help

Very comfortable room and bathroom with all that one needs and furnished to a high standard. Good selection of hot and cold breakfast food which was well presented and constantly re-stocked. Car park fills rapidly, so used the multi-storey 100 metres away which worked out very well.

Honestly loved the hotel. Great location on the wharf. 5 minutes onto the main high street. Also a lovely running route along the canal if you turn right from the hotel. Hayley and Jade on reception were excellent and really helpful. Thank you both. The warm cookie on arrival was a lovely touch.

Could be better
Location is good with plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast was good despite being very busy on Sunday morning. The hotel itself is in need of a refurbishment, carpets in the corridors and rooms have seen better days. Furniture is dated and a little tired. Our bathroom had cracked floor tiles.
Bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning quiet and effective
