| 4.5 star rating | Great location, very modern hotel. Staff were really friendly. Breakfast was plentiful and served late on Sunday. Hotel was very clean. Bed was huge and facilities within the room all worked well. A good selection of TV channels and movies were free!! | I would have been concerned if we were on the other side of the hotel as it is close to a dual carriageway. | 27 September 2011 | |
| 4.5 star rating | Professional and friendly. | Unfortunately, I was checked in to a room that someone was aleady occupying but this was sorted out very quickly. No one advised that I had to hand in the Hotel voucher. This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel - they need to sort out the room doors as they slam with a very loud bang! | Mr B | 23 April 2012 |
| 4.5 star rating | Great quality and value for money for the price I paid (Less than the travelodge opposite). Breakfast excellent. | Extra money for car parking! | sparks | 30 April 2012 |
| 5.0 star rating | Very good room and excellent breakfast | Charlie | 06 May 2012 | |
| 3.5 star rating | The room was very clean and well decorated. The bed was enoromous and the television was a good size. The evening receptionist was friendly and very helpful. The same can't be said for the abrupt lady I had when I checked out. | There are no blinds and I couldn't open the window- the room was stifling hot (even though I stayed in May and it was cold outside!) The lights from outside shone in through the window all night and then the sun from about 5.30am. This meant I had a terrible night's sleep right before an interview. The bathroom coud use a power shower- a trickle on a morning is not pleasant! | interviewee | 07 May 2012 |
| 4.5 star rating | Very contemporary decor, fantastic breakfast, free movies, located in the centre of town and we didn't have to check out until 3pm... | Nothing. | SM63 | 09 May 2012 |
