This was great value for money. A Tesco Express is a 5 minute walk away for convenience. But because most guests have windows open, their doors SLAM shut!! It is loud, and not enjoyable late at night.

Only stayed for one night , comfortable bed clean room and bathroom but smelt as if someone had been smoking in the room and they had tried to cover it up. Only a problem if I opened the doors to the sink/microwave etc. Breakfast ok but coffee cold and I was told to heat it up in the microwave, that's what it was there for!

The staff are excellent. Beds are comfortable. But there is no double glazing and the decor in the rooms is very 1980s. I actually laughed out loud when I walked into the bathroom. The room was noisy and hot. It was difficult to sleep with the window open because of the road noise. Breakfast was only ok. But hotel is very convenient for walking to the university and the free parking was an added bonus.

Special thanks to Christine on reception, although all the staff were cheerful and helpful. We were in the older buildings which were very scruffy and untidy around the grounds. Moved from first room due to unbearable heat, second room much better but nowhere to put clothes that were not on a hanger. Bath very slippy, beware !! Needs a safety met.

An older built but quiet hotel

The Hotel is of the older brick build so no noise from above . Very quiet at night The room though clean would be improved with one coat of paint and a small plaster repair. The staff were very friendly and did an excellent job making me welcome. Great value breakfast.
