Nice room, friendly and efficient staff, tea and coffee, micro and fridge in our large double room. Super king bed. Good room lock you put a code in so no key problems. Bath with shower. Breakfast good value and nice. Lift. Wheelchair ramp, good toilets on ground floor. Great function room. Negatives: shower not working, carpet not as clean as it should be

Family night stay, room large and spacious with lovely decorations. TV signal was poor and kept losing picture. The glasses at the bar had not been cleaned correctly, the fruit at breakfast was mouldy and the Knife and forks were also not cleaned correctly. However the cost was low, so it was still value for money. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

My friends fathers birthday party. Room was ok, shower poor. Staff were mostly nice though one member of male bar staff thought it was appropriate to kick off at one of our party due to a mere misunderstanding on when the bar closed, one colleague said it was ok then he came in throwing his weight around say “he should know better” not only being disrespectful to paying customers but to his colleagues as well. Kitchen area at the back of the function room downstairs absolutely filthy, remnants of state food everywhere. Function room downstairs filthy, thick with dust and tables and bar hadn’t even been cleaned prior to the hire. Bar staff throwing rum down the drain instead of pouring it out correctly because they didn’t know the difference between a double measure and a wine glass measure. Place really run down in general but could be really nice.

Currently staying in this hotel and from the start ive had problems. First room - people partying next door, second room- broken bed, blood on the sheets, young lads (aged 14-16) banging in doors, load lock to get in the room didn’t work. I went downstairs to speak with the duty manger who was really help and apologetic. Could get hold of the manager to give me a refund. Was told I have to wait till Monday! This manager seems unprofessional!! I worked at this hotel many years ago and was ran like a hotel now im not sure what it’s ran like! Needs changing though!! I’m still waiting for the manager to ring or get in contact! One of the worst stays ever! I was book for 1/2 weeks but I will be rethinking about this
