Read All ReviewsStayed here for two nights. Had a disabled room facing the bypass which was little bit hot and stuffy. The staff were pleasant and a disabled parking bay was available. Rooms were clean but basic and bedding quality was just ok not much more comfortable so the management need to improve the quality of the room and facilities for disabled guests. The hotel is value for money but needs improvement for disabled guests and rooms.
