Excellent hotel to stay at. Friendly, helpful staff, comfortable beds, well laid out breakfast. Only downside was no air-con on one of the hottest days but still slept ok. Please stop using the cheapest toilet paper available, it lowers the whole tone of an otherwise excellent hotel.

A good and convenient hotel.

I have stayed here before and found it well maintained, clean, comfortable and safe. On this visit the hotel did not disappoint either, though the bar staff left a lot to be desired, three chatting while you wait in an empty bar is not good. A big contrast to the young man on reception, welcoming, quick and efficient. Convenient for Ipswich, Felixstowe and even Bury St Edmund are a very easy drive
