I loved that my dog got a welcome doggie goody bag on check-in and she could eat breakfast with us.
Very clean, modern and lots of choice for breakfast. Will definitely stay again.
We stayed the night before as we caught the channel tunnel the following morning which was convenient.

Hotel was very convenient and well equipped. Staff were friendly and helpful and the parking was generous. One down side was a dirty non-slip mat for the bath and rather thin walls with noisy neighbours.

We had a good night's sleep in comfortable beds after a tiring journey. The reception is open 24 hours a day, so it wasn't a problem arriving at 1 am. Julie the receptionist is lovely and went above and beyond to help us.
