Good Points: The room was spacious and had everything I needed including an iron. Lovely restaurant.
Bad Points: It was cold. There was a lot of airplane noise from the airport throughout the night. The shower head was old and there was not a great flow of water.
Further Comments: The restaurant was modern and the staff were friendly. There was lovely food.

Good Points: Convenient location
Bad Points: ￂﾣ13.95 for breakfast is extortionate!! 45p newspaper charged at 70p is plain silly, markup 66%+
Further Comments: For me the hotel is in such a good location for my needs, I could be persuaded to stay there at least 26 nights per year. However, the extortionate price of the breakfast, and the petty overcharging of a newspaper actually means that I am most unlikely to stay there unless I am desperate, and if I do it will be on the basis of room only and no extras. The management must surely lose potential repeat business with such ridiculously uncompetitve practices. Do they know what their rivals charge for breakfast? ￂﾣ7.95 max.

Good Points: Clean sheets and towls.
Bad Points: Needs redecorating
Further Comments: The hotel was generally in need of some TLC, it needs redecorating. The main restaurant is expensive and in my opinion not worth the money, but a meal in the cafￃﾩ is reasonable, and recommended. I could not have the window open as the air conditioning units for the hotel were just outside.

Good Points: Well signposted.
Bad Points: TV remote didn't work on arrival, toilet flush difficult to use, shower weak and temperature unsteady. Could tell that my room had been a smoking room in the past. General air of tiredness about the building.
Further Comments: The exterior and rooms seem under-invested - haven't been redecorated for along time. The lounge, bar and restaurant have been refurbished. restaurant prices are high (ￂﾣ23 for a grilled plaice! - more expensive than some London fish specialists), although the food was reported as being good. My bar food was good.

Good Points: Its proximity to the motorway network.
Bad Points: The hotel is beginning to look a little tatty but it is still clean. Coffee pots with no tops, very low water pressure on the top floor, a few stains on the carpets.

Good Points: The building itself was lovely from the outside and promised alot on first glance
Bad Points: The hotel is in need of internal redecoration. The wall paper in my room was peeling and shredded in places where the chair had rubbed against the wall. The Bathroom tiles had been painted over with tile paint which was now peeling away, and there were gaps in the side panel of the bath which were filthy. there were also damp spots and the side lamp shade had seen better days.

Good Points: Bedroom fine - nothing pretentious, clean, nice size, good wardrobe space etc.
Bad Points: The bathroom was very poor indeed - completely out of date - the The lavatory was almost impossible to flush without the arm of Hercules. Frankly, the whole bathroom in desperate need of refurbishment.
Further Comments: Apart from the bathroom a comfortable stay
