Good but .....
The hotel, which I have used a few times, feels a little tired with some communal areas looking quite shabby ( toilets on floor 1 as an example ). The service was good and helpful. Breakfast excellent , although as a family we were a little concerned that too much had been made available and commented to each other on the potential waste.

2/10 Poor

Noisy and unfortunate experience.
Room location next to the boiler exhaust was irritable and on looking out the window the scaffolding was the only view. However the decider was on leaving some prints in the room on checkout they were not recoverable and no word was received from the hotel.
