- RKRob King2 days ago3.0Clean and cheap enough. Can you hear the M1? Yes, but not with the window shut. Extra £5 charge for parking which I've never understood...who is walking to a hotel at a service station? Shower was broken, but these things happen. For the price, im not complaining.
- LKLesley KingAug 25, 20264.0Me and my husband stayed here ever night on are road trip to Yorkshire .and to be fair for 64 with breakfast for two it was OK. I would do it again x
- KFKelson FranciscoAug 23, 20262.0The floor and bedding was clean, everything else was very dusty and dirty.
- PDPink DiazAug 19, 20264.0The room was spotless and the receptionist ( Lorraine ) was great. Only 3 stars for room because it was stifling hot. There was a fan which eased it a bit. Great stay and very convenient for food and drink.
- ITIan TapsellAug 15, 20264.0Cheap and cheerful accommodation at a motorway services. Room was tidy and a decent size. Shower was a little temperamental. Pity the service area was so busy in the morning meaning we had to wait until we were on the road again and find somewhere to get something for breakfast
