high parking fee disinterested staff
The bed was comfortable enough, I guess.
The parking fee of over £15 per night reminded me of a rip-off. It wasn't mentioned clearly when I booked. The staff seemed pretty disinterested, especially at check-in. Nobody seemed to care about my arrival.

The hotel had a great exterior look in the heart of the area. The location was perfect. The reception and dining area looked great and the room was spacious and clean. The cooked breakfast was tasty, and the parking process was simple, providing access to a CCTV monitored car park.
The room needed some tlc as there were stains on the walls, a small disappointment.
