Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We were too hot and only discovered in the morning that we could have requested a sheet. We were not told this at check in. The bed was comfortable and the staff are lovely
A really lovely stay, could not have wished for better from great, friendly staff who could not have done any better.
I always stay here when in Busces. Check in was so welcoming.
Average budget hotel with a non working air-conditioning system. Table fan to the rescue.
No proper restaurant, bar with pub food, just edible..

Liked: Cleanliness
The breakfast is very good and staff replenish the food pretty quickly. Coffee was good too. Hotel room is generally pretty clean except a couple of stains on the carpet. Car park isn't free which I think should be free for paying hotel customers. There isn't air conditioning in the room so it would be very hot if the weather is very warm otherwise a fan is provided in the room. The welcoming staff at the desk wasn't as attentive as I would expect because we were waiting for quite a while & no one had acknowledged our arrival & some other staff who were near the desk faffing also didn't acknowledge us. Apart from that, the other staff members were friendly & helpful.

Unexpected car parking charges,
Allocated a disabled room,
No tea or spoons in room.
Holiday Inn definitely off my list!
Everything was great from the minute we arrived. We stayed for 4 nights, breakfast was great every morning and had a great selection especially for a holiday inn express. The hotel room itself was clean and exactly what we needed. Not a single complaint from either of us
The property is in great location. Cleanliness and staff cannot be faulted, yet the hotel is a bit dated and in need of better maintenence e.g. air conditioning leaking, shower hose needs replacing, etc.
