Hotel was good. Would have been nice to have a fridge. There was room for one in room 10.
Carpet could definitely do with a clean or replacing!
Beds comfortable. Breakfast very good for £10pp
Parking £14.50 a night (a bit steep £10 would have been more acceptable).
Within walking distance to AO arena and city center.

Easy check in comfortable stay, room had an uneven floor bit of drain smell from ensuite. Some noisy guests slamming doors bit disturbing during the night.

Hotel was amazing, so clean and comfortable. Staff are absolutely lovely and very friendly. Make you feel very welcome, only slight issue would be the fan in our room didn’t work so was quite hot at night. Can’t fault it otherwise

Location away from centre. Friendly staff but front desk, breakfast room and communal areas are basic and not boutique hotel standard
