A Super tidy Stay

cute staff good facilities comfy bed
The staff was LOVELY and cute. The room and facilities seemed good. The bed was comfy. I used the tea and coffee facilities in my room, and these worked well. Parking outside was free and convenient.
The water temperature in the shower was tricky to adjust, and the heat was hard to regulate.

basic stay with cleanliness issues

worn towels broken air conditioning
the room was not very clean. i found some hairs in the bathroom, and the towels looked quite worn (they even had small tears). also, the air conditioning did not work at all, a problem because the room got quite stuffy.

friendly staff convenient parking good location squeaky bed broken tile warm dribble
the staff was always friendly and nothing was too much trouble. i even lost a glove, and the lady offered to hold it for my next visit. parking in front of the building is convenient. the location is good, just off the highway.
The bed was squeaky. I could hear every move. a broken tile was in front of the toilet. The floor seemed like it was sinking. the shower had a warm dribble of water and it took ages to get a reasonable temperature.

charming stay!

convenient location roof windows parking spaces
The hotel's location was quite convenient, being a short walk to the central line. i found a big tesco nearby, handy. my room on the second floor was spacious. It had a sloping ceiling and roof windows that provided good ventilation. parking spaces were available, a major plus for drivers.
the furniture in my room looked a bit worn, and i missed having decaf tea and a teaspoon.
