8/10 Very good

Clean and comfortable room. Friendly staff. Breakfast was good. But I didn’t like the front door being locked by 8.15pm and the outlook from our room (a wall, maybe a couple of metres from the window.)

Richard, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Potentially dangerous - locked outside at 3am!!

Checked in with no problems, but turns out that a key was missing from our room keys which left us locked outside at 3am. No staff on duty overnight to answer door or phone. We were left stranded outside in a dark, deserted town centre, unable to access the room and had to wake a friend who lives nearby and sleep on their couch. Not sure what we would have done if this was not an option. This could have been a very dangerous situation, but luckily we were were only left tired, angry and disappointed. Were promised a call-back from the manager but this has not happened. Pursuing full refund.

1st choice

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast and evening meals are good. And when I am in the area again would be my 1st choice to stay.
