Staff where very helpfull the room was clean the bathroom was dated signs of ageing and damp holes in the floor coverd with fresh vynil black silicone around the bath
Breakfast was the best part loads of choice fresh.
Breakfast was ok but could be better if cooked fresh for each person and not left over hot plates for all to collect but other than that the hotel was fantastic cleanliness was fantastic room was perfect and the bed was the biggest bed I have ever seen all in all one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in
Our 2nd stay here to attend a concert at in Manchester.
Can't really fault it, comfortable rooms with nice beds and shower.
Attached bar was very festive at this time of year and a good place to have a drink. Breakfast was good.

Beds were extra comfy got a good night sleep and food was perfect had a roast and breakfastsnd couldnt fault either. Would definitely recommend and stay there again
Good location just off the motorway. Room was clean and modern with plenty of plug points and usb points. Parking is include and breakfast which had a good variety
A great place to stay, we used it for an overnight to watch a band at the AO arena in Manchester.
Plenty of parking space and the rooms are comfortable, nice bed and great shower.
Don't expect luxury here but it does the job well for the price point.
All staff we interacted with were very nice, we had lunch and breakfast here and both were good.
Overall, highly recommended and we'll be back.
Great place to stay, room was very clean, the bed was very comfy
The food was amazing. A million stars for the carvery. I will be back again with my children, my eldest loved the room and the restursnt food.
Room was basic, clean and had good connectivity. I stayed for 3 nights and slept well. The car park always had a space when I arrived back. Staff were very nice. The pub next door serves good quality food. I had the carvery which was very good. I only had a couple of cold items from the breakfast each morning the service was good and I could eat and get on my way quickly.
