OK but could be good
Overall stay ok. Had a downstairs room next to reception which was very noisy. The room was an accessible room which was slightly awkward as the bathroom was set up for wheelchair use and all the mirrors were at waist height. The chef was off sick so no food available and the breakfast was limited with inexperienced young staff member who clearly had little training on waiting tables.

Convenient location and friendly staff
Good all round hotel with friendly staff and very good location opposite the train station. Ten minutes walk to the twin centre and plenty of free parking at the hotel during our two-night stay.

Nice hotel good food and friendly and attentive staff. Rooms are very nice too. Unfortunately the bathrooms let it down. The shower screens are too short so water goes everywhere and floods the bathroom and the sinks are not bathroom sinks, they are designed for small toilets and there are no hooks on the doors. They are so small you can't get the kettle in to fill it up and if you do something like washing your face, again water goes everywhere, not good. Shame because the rest of the hotel is lovely.

Great service from the team. Didn’t realise when booking that the hotel is owned by the YMCA and operated as a social enterprise. Brilliant to see a hotel ran by apprentices who clearly have a passion for the hospitality sector. Keep up the good work 👍

Every member of staff we encountered was so polite, friendly and helpful in particular ALEX who would go the extra mile It was a quiet place to stay which was warm, quiet and everything was close at hand. The menu was limited in choice but was very tasty and enjoyable.

My one complaint: not enough sockets for hair dryer etc and in the wrong place. Kneeling on the floor to dry your hair is not fun!
