We had to phone for someone. Sadly, check-in was slow in waiting for someone to come and attend.
Basic room which AA would give 2 star rating. Photos online of parking shows tarmac but its actually pebbled. It is clean and a fan waa supplied. Plenty of tea & coffee in the room.
Easy walking distance to city centre for utilita arena and plenty of places to eat and drink, which are open very late

Room was fine, area was ok. Short walk to tram stop. Check in was very difficult though. Called a number, gave us the door code, told us to find a key in a basket and go to that room. Nobody around at all! Went to the room and went out for the night to a concert. 4 missed calls, 10:40pm being the last after the concert had finished, my partner had a text asking “is this [surname]?” and asking for payment. If they sorted check in, they’d get payment then! Getting back at 11:45pm, tired and having travelled 5 hours in the day to meet someone when you’re back in the premises so you can pay just felt awkward, uninviting and made a bit of a vibe

Double room on 2nd floor
Welcomed and told where the room was. Tired property, with mold in the shower room, stains on the carpet and the carpet gripper was very loose. Bed was super soft and the pillows were flat

Poor.
On phoning the mobile number attached to the front door, a member of the kitchen staff let us in and supplied the key to Room 7. This room is unacceptable, with shredded net curtains at the window. The same staff member phoned someone, who arranged for us to have Room 1 instead. Whilst an improvement on Room 7, it is way below an acceptable standard, and should not be let out until cleaned up, at the very least.

Restaurant good. Rooms average and TV rubbish
Room was a little tired, evidence of damp in the bathroom and the shower curtain needs replacing for the same reason.
TV channels were not good, had to download regular TV channel apps rather than just having freeview TV.
Food in the restaurant was excellent and onsite parking good.

Quiet and comfortable
The room was very spacious, warm and comfortable. It was ideally situated for where I needed to be.
The bar / restaurant was not at all busy, so there was no noise to speak of. My room was on the furst floor and I had a fantastic sleep.
My only slight reservation about the room was a broken bath panel. It dated the bathroom, whish was otherwise spacious and clean.
Will definitely be staying here again.
