I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The hotel's location was extremely convenient, with a bus stop right outside that made it easy to get into town and to the airport. Additionally, there were a McDonald's and Tesco Extra just a short walk away, which was incredibly handy. The beds were comfortable, and the place was spotlessly clean. The breakfast selection was great, offering a lot of choice for guests.
Don't have any issues at all.
The room was cosy, clean, spacious, and perfect for a family of 5. Beds were comfy and we all slept well. The location was excellent, with a bus stop right next to the hotel, providing easy transportation to the city center. There were also plenty of shops and takeaways nearby. We enjoyed visiting the zoo, which was a short 5-minute drive away. The staff was great and very helpful. Breakfast was lovely too!
Could not be improved in any way.
