Stayed there a few times over the years . Good location for an over night stop etc. Clean and tidy over all. Friendly staff. It went down a bit a few years ago but seems to have been spruced up recently. Change of ownership? (The tv in the room had seen better days with occasional unresponsive controls. Wi-fi did not load up.)

The property rated highly for cleanliness. However I found the property to be quite run down, not as clean as I’d have expected and overall poor in presentation- threadbare is how I’d describe it. An example is that the TV remote to a very small TV did not work and was sticky. I went to get new AA batteries from reception but they had only oneAAA battery. They didn’t offer to obtain any more. It was not what I expected from the reviews and how it was presented.

This hotel is ideal if you are staying and your fur baby needs to go with you, we had no-one to look after our baby. Not many hotels take in dogs so to find this one which was 20 mins away from the hospital for my operation. This hotel is not the cleanest of hotels but for one night and with your dog is fantastic.

Although it was easy to park, you definitely needed a car to travel into Preston for our planned venue, cost of taxi &30.00 each way. All staff were very friendly, polite & helpful, room spacious & spotless. Would return, even though due to family foreseen circumstances we only stayed for one night, although we had paid for two

On arrival I checked in and was shown my room. The bed was almost on the floor. The room was freezing cold and I spoke to reception and she came to the room and attempted to warm up. She was lovely. I went to the attached restaurant which is a steak house- they had NO steak. On returning to the room it was still freezing and there was no towels. I had to be moved. On the second room the heating worked. I was asleep and was woken by the sound of small feet scuffling around on what sounded like a hard surface. After the initial shock, I decided to check for droppings to confirm my suspicions there was mice, there was none seen but the sound went through the night. I therefore had no sleep!

Reception staff even though I’d payed for my room refused to let me take my luggage into room until I’d payed for my pup even though I’d more luggage and pup was in car room was far too hot shower was tiny not enough towels given definitely would not use again in fact still waiting on a refund for a room cancelled way before trip due to ill health of a fellow traveller In need of a upgrade desperately and staff training manners cost nothing

The bedroom was small with broken furniture and mould in the shower. No effort was made to repair the furniture and no offer of an alternative room until it was too late. Housekeeping left dirty cups and insufficient towels for two guests during this four night stay. Accommodation directed at those working in the area.

Hotel is very nice but the adjoining pub was closed which was very disappointing because we booked here to have a meal and a couple of drinks.
