The staff were really lovely, always helpful and pleasant. The rooms were good sized, with plenty of work space, and good bathroom with bath... More

Having been sold an upgrade to a Club Room by a friendly and charming receptionist, one might have expected something better than the average. Unfortunately the carpet was well worn, and also torn, dangerously so for the elderly,a child or anyone in heels.

The rooms and public areas were very clean. But furnishing in rooms were rather worn and tired. Some evidence of rather chavvy guests causing minor damage. Yet all looked business types. We were just there having flown home from Madeira and it was a place to stay for one night prior to onward travel. Staff helpful and friendly. Food in... More
