Great place to stay
I was greeted by nice friendly staff very polite. My room was big and the double bed was very comfortable shower was powerful and there was plenty of hot water the price was very good if in the area again I would definitely stay again. If I had one thing to moan about the outside and carpark were very untidy.

Stayed here with a friend. The room was small but all you needed, it did look like something out of a horror movie similar to an american motel! The shower hardly worked, mattress was extremely uncomfortable woke up in agony after the first night so we left and returned home.

The bathroom needed to be done up. It was clean but ageing. The lights above the bed didn’t work. Cigarette butts outside! And left over takeaways outside thrown into a corner. However it had good parking.

Good for a break with a dog
We spent 3 nights here for a weekend break with a small dog. The rooms are basic and a bit run down in places like the bathroom. But we had a comfortable stay and it was ideal for what we needed and we had a lovely time. The rooms are “motel style” with separate doors to the outside, so perfect for taking our pooch outside when needed and we experienced less noise that could disturb our 4 legged companion, than a classic hotel corridor with other guests coming and going. Check in was very friendly and the guy on reception was really helpful and wanted to ensure we had a nice stay. Easy reach to Stratford Upon Avon and Arrow Valley Country Park. Plenty of dog friendly pub options not too far away too. If we were looking for another doggie holiday, we would certainly stay here again.

Fair accommodation for the price. Bed was comfy enough and had a good nights sleep. Just could do with a good clean outside car park etc rubbish all around. But for the price I would stay here for a business trip.

DO NOT STAY IN THIS MOTEL
Please AVOID AVOID AVOID Do not be attempted by the few nice pictures they DO NOT reflect how much of a dirty and unpleasant this place is. This place was a brothel before and may be still is. I have paid £45, its not about the money but I wouldn't have paid one £1 if I knew how bad it is, They need to pay people to stay there. The hotel inspectors should be a sham not to close the place down. This is a disgrace to the industry

No hot water or electricity. Had to use mobile phone to see where I was going. Was not told the hotel was closed and far too late to find alternative accomodation.

We arrived at 10pm to be told the hotel was closed due to a power outage. Nobody had bothered to contact us prior to travelling to the hotel. We were told to contact expedia for a refund. Basically we were left to our own devices with no where to stay late at night. Will never book here again, very unhelpful.

I booked from Nigeria and was charged $72/night and later booked from England only to be charged $32/night for the same room. My reservation was cancelled after I got to the hotel to check in because the power supply to the hotel was cut. I had to make alternative arrangements late at night to book another hotel in town. It was a horrible experience for me to say the least

awful
Rooms were awful. Booked several rooms for colleagues to stay in while working away. One room had sick in the bin and mold on the ceilings, the other had urine in the bin. Neither of the guests wanted to stay there however, had no choice.
