I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were cleaned daily to a high standard, but I found it a bit uncomfortable that the 'twin room' beds couldn't be separated more than a few inches, making it stuffy and hot. The service, although very helpful, seemed a bit overwhelmed by coach parties. However, the location was convenient and great for visiting family. The dining experience was average with slow service and some overcooked sausages, although it was reasonably priced. Overall, it's a decent option for the value, with some room for improvement.

The hotel location was excellent, easy to reach and ideal for a night at the DW stadium. The rooms seemed dark and uninviting with lacking storage and limited electrical outlets, disappointing for the price. The service was very accommodating towards special requests like vegan options and allowed for a late check-out. The dining was average with a reasonably good selection but slightly delayed opening times. Overall, the facilities were professional, but some areas showed signs of wear and tear.
