For the price you pay for your room you do not get value for money. The property needs a serious update and appears they have taken over running the old Holiday Inn and just stuck their branding on it. Rooms need a big refurbishment as there aren't even any USB outlets to charge anything. The bathroom has extremely old fixtures that work but feel well used. The room appeared decent but needed a better clean as a spider web as hanging from the roof and a squashed bug on the wall, not cleaned off.

Not a 4 start hotel under any circumstances. Tired and plain without any personality. The staff are lovely, and the breakfast was good. Parking is convoluted and away from the hotel in a parking station where a discounted fee was provided. Would not stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay at the property, the only thing that we didn’t rate is the cleaning in the rooms. Attention to detail, ie vacuuming the floors and making sure the shower floors were clean were not their strongest point. Otherwise great place for families to stay at. Let’s hope now that a new hotel chain has taken over, these details will be addressed.
