Disappointed
We stayed one night in a standard King room.
The air con and radiator were not working so could not change the temperature in the room. Thankfully it was not cold outside.
Bed was comfortable with a topper on it, but in the morning showed signs of sagging in the middle of each half.
Bathroom. Plus side, plenty of hot water and a decent sized bath. Negative - extractor fan didn't work so the room very steamy.
We reported the issues with the front desk and was told they would report it to maintenance.
Evening meal was ok but didn't come up to the
expectation of the description.
Overall, the hotel is tired, the staff not very attentive except a student waitress who was very good.
We will not stay here again even though it would be very handy for our needs.

Trip away
This was a 2-night stay with my son. It is about a 25 minute drive into Southampton from here, booked as we were visiting Southampton. Plenty of car parking, greeting by staff on entry was pleasant. I had booked a room with 2 single beds and on getting to room (132) the 2 single beds were pushed together, not enough space to seperate them. The room was a long walk from the reception. Ensuite for room was on the smaller size, the TV control in the room would not provide a guide to the channels. Kettle and drinks making were inside the TV cabinet, desk with chair to work at if required. Beds were comfortable and curtains blocked out all light from outside.

Convenient stopover after French ferry. Not a very friendly check in. Over worked bar staff struggled to keep the tables clean. Breakfast was good. Room was clean, spacious and comfortable.

Fine - some TLC / attention to detail required.
We used the hotel to do Paultons park. Nice size family room but they really need some TLC. No tv remote, no A/C only heat coming out so the room was boiling. The most disappointing was the bathroom- get some mould and Mildew remover, and clean the drains.
Restaurant food was a bit of a hit and miss depending on what you ordered.

Very comfortable
We only had one nights stay but the guy on reception was very pleasant and was informative and helpful. The room was clean / tidy. Large comfortable bed. We had an evening meal which was to a high standard and the breakfast was very good. Can’t fault the place for the time we had.
