Try to park somewhere else as the price is high
Clean room, good breakfast with the addition of takeout bag, the only downside to this hotel is the Carpark cost was high, this does annoy me when staying at hotels, it’s like squeezing just a bit more out of you during your stay.

Excellent value and a great place to stay
The check in was easy and the staff really helpful from start of the stay to the end. Nothing was too much trouble and the breakfast area was constantly cleaned and cleared. The room was warm and the shower great. Just a shame we had a view overlooking a street at the back.

Why do dogs need to be allowed everywhere?
This is an almost typical Express so everything you'd expect. What let it down was the clearly too small breakfast area and the fact that other guests were allowed to have their (non-Service) dogs in that area, allowing said dog to just wander up to others tables. Unhygienic and just rude with the staff doing nothing.

Okay for a family of 4 for 1 night but no longer.
The hotel is well located (10 min walk into city) and parking is available but at an extra cost. The breakfast was good and there was enough choice but had to wait 10 mins for a table on the Sunday morning as it was busy - Saturday was fine. There were 4 of us staying in a family room and the double bed was good but the pull-out sofa was between a single and double size so the 2 children sharing weren't very comfortable but managed. Staff were all lovely and very helpful.
