David, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Window handle was broken so could hear the traffic. Paper thin ceilings after a late night out was woken up at 7am by the person above stomping around Comfy bed - hotel could do with a real good revamp, frayed carpets in corridors only bonus is the bar is open 24 hours. Breakfast was average in honesty I would only stay here again for the fact it had a 24 hour bar!
See frayed carpet - not a nice thing to see when you walk out of the elevator for the first time as u go to check into your room!!

10/10 Exceptional

Room was huge ,loved the shower with a seat , all spotlessly ckean,sleptcreally well . Staff were all super ,special shout out to the girls on breakfast duty this morning ,they wee kept very busy ,but still very polite 😀 Lovely selection for breakfast ,but did notice one guest picking up bread with her fingers (tongs were provided)and then putting it back in the basket Toaster not suited to such a large dining area ,and located in the middle of everything, needs re locating to the area where the jam/marmalade and cereals are But all in all an enjoyable experience and filled us up for our drive back to Wales Great parking facilities and free !! Would definately stay again ,now we've got our bearings Great value !! Carpeted area in places could do wirh renewing
