Size of our family room was brilliant. However the air conditioning/heating pumps were underneath our window. The noise all night was awful. Especially around 6am when the noise increased!! It was a shame because staff and breakfast were brilliant. Rooms a bit shabby, especially the shower.

Mixed bag of experience

The hotel has decorated the bedrooms which is good. The bathroom was not clean and smelt of urine. They need to increase the size of the car parking spaces as there is no room to get in and out of your car due to others parking too close.

Won't be using it again, very poor

Nothing good to say about the place really. Rooms are in a poor state of repair, I had to insist on a new shower head as the original was disgustingly filthy and clogged. WiFi is terrible and patchy, not suitable for a business trip. Room smelled stale as did the corridors, the hotel looks and feels.old and tired,bar attached is shockingly expensive and overall my impression was very poor

Oh dear....

The room is very tired and in need of major refurbishment including electric and bedside lights. the room was supposed to be an accessible room but as a wheelchair user, it was far from accessible. the toilet was too low the safety rail between the shower and toilet was not safe and falling away with rust. the shower head and rail are falling off and broken. when a neighbor uses their facilities, it can all be heard through the drains. the sink is not accessible from a wheelchair nor are the soaps. All in all, the worst holiday Inn we have stayed in and we have stayed in a lot over the years, the first being The Post House in Chrick now a Holiday Inn in 1973. The Staff are lovely and welcoming and we did report some of the items to them. we were told it is up for refurbishment but we will not be staying here again until that has been completed

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was big and spacious, the bed was firm and i slept really well. I was trying to see what mattress was used so i could buy one. I was attending a wedding in the local area was was ideal. The view from my room was a pitch behind the hotel and i heard cheering l looked out of the window and saw alot of naked men running around the pitch with a crowd, im assuming some sort of charity thing, but it made me laugh. The only down sides was the hairdryer didnt work, after a few minutes it stopped and wouldnt come back on. I had to keep messing with the wire, and the shower was broke so it wouldnt stay up fully, which make it hard to wash my hair while stood in the shower.

Kitchen ventilator made the whole room shake

Room 135 is above the kitchen, the hotel knows it makes the room vibrate until 21.30, but don't vare about it. I was promised a compensation, but got nothing. They just wanted me in and out as quick as possible. I am not comming back. I can't say anything about the rest of the hotel, this is only for room 135
