6.8/10

The hotel rooms were a bit cold with no portable heater available, and the bathroom seemed a bit old. The breakfast was understocked, overcooked, and cold, lacking a private cubicle with seating for disabled use. However, the check-in process was smooth and efficient, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The hotel's location was convenient near the M6 but appeared somewhat unkempt in certain areas. The dining experience was average with self-service options and could have been better coordinated, although there were some good dishes available.

I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel's interior which was lovely. The rooms were tranquil, but unfortunately, there was a constant droning on the roof all night that disrupted my sleep. Waiting beyond check-in time for our rooms was a bit inconvenient. The rooms were also much too hot for comfortable sleeping.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms were tranquil, but the constant noise on the roof affected my sleep and waiting past check-in was a downside. The rooms were uncomfortably hot.

Service

8.0

The service was good overall with tidy and spacious facilities. Special thanks to Zhana who allocated us a ground floor room near the exit for our dog.

Location

The hotel is kept very busy on weekdays with coach loads passing through, but it was great for the purpose of our stay. The proximity to the M6 was convenient.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience wasn't ideal as it felt chaotic and lacked staff. However, the option for light snacks was appreciated.

Facilities

7.0

The hotel could benefit from a second coffee machine to reduce queues, and attention is needed for the shower drain that was blocked.

7.8/10

The hotel offers a nice stay with spacious rooms and friendly service. The location is great for exploring the surrounding areas, although a bit far from the town center. The dining options are good with hot and tasty dishes available at a reasonable price.

Rooms

The rooms were very nice and spacious, perfect for a group of friends. The girls especially enjoyed the pool. However, the room atmosphere felt a little cold at times, like a large school dinner hall.

Service

The service was excellent, with friendly and informative staff. They were attentive throughout the stay, but sometimes overly eager in clearing plates.
