Really good Stay, A Truly Nice Experience

The room size was very generous. It was nice and neat too. I also appreciated the free parking offered to guests. There was a nice breakfast served.
The room was smaller than I expected, and the double bed felt a bit compact.

The hotel offers plenty of parking space for drivers. The location is quiet too. It is easy to get taxi pick ups and drop offs. A bus stop outside is another advantage.

unbearable temperaturesticky remote
The room temperature was unbearable , like being in a freezer. the prices at the bar was like highway robbery . I swear i paid twelve pounds for a gin and tonic. if the pepperoni pizza i had is any indication , the food is definitely questionable. i also noticed the tv remote was sticky , a detail that really tests one's commitment to hygiene. it made me question what other corners were being cut.

the location proved convenient for the venue i attended. parking felt ample and added to the convenience. the room had a tv..
the room felt smaller than anticipated, especially the double bed. i requested a ground floor room with a shower, but it was not available without an extra charge.. this felt quite inflexible. there was also limited space to put clothing.

The open spaces in the lounge bar were an inviting space. the staff member on shift was super attentive, informative, kind and friendly. Prices of drinks were very affordable. the room was quite spacious and comfortable. staff could be more helpful!
initially my friend and i loved the look of the hotel it was clean and in good order. went to reception and asked for soya milk to be told soya had run out at breakfast so the only other milk was oat milk, i was unable to even have a cup of tea for the duration of my stay

the staff was friendly and cute, which i appreciated after a long drive.
I found the hotel to be quite cold throughout my stay. there was no way to adjust the temperature in my room (i even asked at the front desk). also, the bar prices seemed high. I was charged £12 for a large g&t.

check-in was smooth, and the staff ensured i had all the information i needed. the super king sized bed was comfortable, and i was so glad to have a bath (a definite plus after a long day). i easily walked to the abbey gardens and the town center in about fifteen minutes. the staff was helpful with directions and local information.
i noticed some slight wear on the furniture, but it was minor and didn't affect my stay at all.
