This was the first travel inn we stayed at during our weekend away and I must say it was the best. It was easy enough to find and parking was free. If you wanted to go into the town it was a 10-15 minute drive or you could take a shuttle bus / park n ride from the carpark down the road. The receptionist on arrival was lovely we were early but she still managed to sort a room for us. Wish I had taken her name. The room was on the first floor and very clean, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was again spacious and the door actually swung back so you could close it just in the toilet area to have that separate from the shower which would have been good if someone needed to use it whilst another person was in the shower. Breakfast was very busy but we managed to get a seat and table. There was a large selection of cereal, breads, croissants, jams, fruit, teas, coffee etc. The cooked breakfast consisted of sausage, bacon that looked a bit anaemic , scrabbled eggs and beans. It was basic but it filled you up for the day ahead. Check out was quick and easy. If you get a chance the little pub next to the hotel was lovely for an evening meal and not too expensive either.
The only negative would be that the air conditioning was either non existent or just didn't work. The room was very warm the whole time. The Windows had a restriction on them so couldn't be opened any further and we had to leave them open all night despite the noise of the traffic. I must say though once the windows were closed and the double glazing you couldn't hear the traffic at all, just the fact it was too hot it wasn't possible to close them.

Dear MichelleJAM,

Thank you for leaving a review of your stay with us during your weekend away, I'm very happy to see that we were the best that you have visited! I'm also glad to see that despite the earliness, my colleague was able to get a room sorted for you to save you waiting until 2pm! We take great pride in our hotel so it's good to see that our high standards of cleanliness were maintained. Your comments regarding the bacon are definitely appreciated as we are always striving to improve.

Also, at the moment in time we do not currently have air conditioning in our bedrooms, I sympathise that the room was warm due to the hot weather. If you are planning on visiting us again soon (or any hotel) please do not be afraid to ask for a sheet to help keep you a bit cooler, our staff will always be more than happy to accommodate your requests.

I hope that we can welcome you back to us again soon for another great - and cooler - stay.

Kind regards,
Jacob Shakespeare
Guest Service Manager

Hotel and breakfast were very good. Although no air conditioning, the weather was
such that it was not needed that much. Without it the room was a little stuffy. Staff
were very friendly and the location was great for our vacation through the UK.

We stayed here for one night en route to a dog friendly caravan holiday in Cornwall at the beginning of July. We usually choose Holiday Inn Express because they allow dogs and have the best free continental breakfasts in the world! (Not strictly continental, as sausages, scrambled eggs and beans are included). This hotel did not disappoint and was up to the usual Holiday Inn Express standard.
