good selectiondirty bathroomstained shower curtain
the breakfast included a good selection of food.
I was disappointed that the staff did not acknowledge my request for a room change when the disability room i was given was not what i booked. the hotel claimed it was full, but the website showed available rooms. furthermore, the room was not clean. The bathroom was quite dirty with stains on the shower curtain.

A Reliable Stay Near the Motorway

ample selectiongood roomhelpful staffburning toast
I found the breakfast delicious. It offered ample selection. The room size was good and was clean. I found all staff excellent and very helpful. Parking was available. The hotel was near the M6. It provided additional convenience.
The fire alarm activated at 7 AM. It was due to toast burning. Perhaps a different toaster is needed. It could prevent abrupt awakenings.
