Amenities

The hotel participates in the Greener Stay program, rewarding guests who opt out of housekeeping with points or discounts. A communal microwave and an ice machine are available on the ground floor for guest convenience. The 24-hour front desk offers express check-in/check-out and luggage storage, and a vending machine provides snacks and drinks.

Guest rooms include interconnecting family rooms for larger groups, air conditioning, and blackout curtains for restful sleep. Power showers and flat-screen TVs are standard in all rooms, with a choice of soft or firm pillows. Wheelchair accessible rooms with disability access are available, and some rooms feature sofa beds for additional sleeping space.

Satisfactory Stay

good staff decent breakfast no discount unclean area
The staff were very good with my little jack russell. Breakfast offered a decent feed to set me up for the day. i liked the breakfast. It really helped me get going.
I noticed that you don't get a discount if you pay with the hotel for the car park. The car park is at the ncp and a few minutes walk. i found there was not much hot food available and i had to scrape the trays out. it wasn't the cleanest area either.
